Ravensbourne is among the top
third of all institutions in England
for creative graduate salaries.*
“I have found that students
from Ravensbourne entering
the workplace have the
knowledge and experience
required for business. Most of
all I feel they are given ‘real
world’ training and not just the
theory of how things are done.”

Mindsets & Skillsets
It is an exciting time to join Ravensbourne!
The creative industries are a growth area of
the UK economy and our graduates enter
the job market industry-ready and equipped
with the mindsets and skillsets to succeed.
Our very strong industry connections
confirm that our students are prepared
for the professional challenges ahead by
employing so many of them (19/20 of our
graduates have industry jobs within six
months of graduating**). Many of them go
on to be the leaders that are helping to
shape the future of the creative industries.
It’s a reputation that we’re very proud of and
we recognise that to maintain our place as
a real leader in education we must continue
to be radical innovators and disruptors in
design and media education.

In 2018 we launched ‘The Mindsets
and Skillsets Manifesto’, our new and
groundbreaking approach to academic and
practical learning. Informed by intensive
research into leading-edge educational and
professional techniques that are shaping
tomorrow’s design and media world, this
will deliver an unrivalled education that
will keep our graduates at the forefront of
innovation and creativity, future proofing
your educational toolkit.
Undergraduate students start with
our innovative induction ‘boot-camp’
at the start of Year One, through our
programme of collaborative electives in
Year Two to our professional enterprise
and entrepreneurship units in Year Three.
We will ensure that you fully develop two
crucial characteristics that you’ll need for a
successful career: a resilient and confident
mindset that will free you to develop and
apply your own creativity and an industry
standard skillset that will help you to hit
the ground running as a 21st century
creative practitioner.
We believe that to thrive and succeed in
tomorrow’s creative industries, the ability
to think creatively and holistically with
advanced emotional intelligence are as vital
as being able to harness the technologies
and skills you’ll need in an evolving and
sustainable career.
Joining Ravensbourne is the first step of
your career. It will unlock your creative
potential, enabling you to develop the
mindset and skillsets that will take you
far and expand your horizons!
