The course is taught by a team of experienced academics and practitioners that have had professional careers in a related sector and/or are internationally recognised researchers in the field. A group of non-academic artists, partners and advisors also contribute to the delivery of the programme, in the forms of visiting talks, workshops and discussions, contributing to assignment briefs, and offering networking opportunities.

Our course is unique in that it is delivered alongside multiple degree routes in the broader Creative and Cultural Industries subject areas, which enables you to have a multi and interdisciplinary learning experience and meet and collaborate with a range of creative professionals.
