ART AND DESIGN COURSES IN THE UNITED KINDOMS

The field of art and design creatively expresses emotions and ideas through tangible objects and illustrations. Though the appreciation of art is often subjective, it is a powerful form of communication that has the ability to provoke, influence and inspire. In the digital era, art and design is integrated into almost every facet of our lives from paintings to advertising, to ordinary household objects.

Despite being one of the most ancient practices, art and design encourages innovation, and is considered to be a modern and exciting course to pursue. Qualifications in art and design equip a person to work in various industries such as manufacturing, photography, advertising, teaching, web development, publishing, video game design, fashion, film, the list goes on.

With the tradition of art and design dating back hundreds of years, the UK continues to become a hub for a veritable who's who of names in this area - people who have reached the pinnacle of their profession in art, fashion, design and animation many times over, from acclaimed designer Jimmy Choo to the 'Prince of fashion' Bernard Chandran.

It stands to reason, therefore, that the UK provides good quality courses and an excellent study environment for students in Malaysia. There are a number of programmes to choose from that encompass design areas such as product packaging, automobiles, furniture, architecture, ceramics, textiles, fashion, graphic design and animation. Students will also be equipped with other skill sets such as the ability to understand and interpret art, and the acquisition of business acumen through additional subjects such as philosophy, sociology or history, and business subjects.

Studying a UK qualification provides you with access to a curriculum and teaching methodology designed to provide you with a high quality education. Aside from the course content, students will also pick up leadership, communication, teamwork and problem solving skills as they work with different individuals and assignments.

Typically, students can study subjects such as:

• animation • brand packaging design • professional design • digital graphics • fashion and textiles • art and design.

Malaysia has a demand for people trained in the arts and design. There are multiple industries looking for independent, reliant and forthcoming graduates of the right calibre. A relevant UK qualification presented to a potential employer shows that you have indeed achieved the necessary skills to set yourself apart from the chasing pack and that you are ready for the next challenge.
