Course summary
The Illustration degree course at Brighton enjoys a reputation for producing artists who are confident in using their own creative voice and who work in a range of styles. This course celebrates both the traditional and the contemporary, exploring what illustration could be, not just what it is. We place an emphasis on experimentation, and our course team will help you to develop your own visual language. You’ll benefit from dedicated studio space, excellent specialist art and design libraries and our internationally significant Design Archives. You will enjoy a programme of studio and gallery visits and an optional study trip. There are opportunities to exhibit throughout the course and a final-year graduate show. You will be part of the vibrant Visual Communication programme of courses and our teaching staff are leaders in their fields - past contributors have included Raymond Briggs, Cressida Cowell MBE, Quentin Blake, Emily Gravett, John Vernon Lord, George Hardie and Jasper Goodall.
