Course summary

Graphic Design at the University of Brighton is an innovative, popular course with a reputation for producing ambitious and bold designers who communicate, inform, entertain and challenge the status quo. In our dedicated studio space, you will benefit from working with a course team with professional practice in typography, letterpress printing, book design, exhibition design, photography, art direction, animation, digital sound and music.
