Ravensbourne's BA (Hons) Graphic Design application guide 1 | Page 2

This guide aims to prepare you for the different stages of the application process. Graphic designers at Ravensbourne are progressive, enterprising, playful and ambitious. Students are introduced to many novel ways of thinking and concept development. They explore platform, format and context, considering materials and the medium. Through experimentation and enquiry, their approach reflects on the past, challenges the contemporary and anticipates the creative future. We value and nurture individualism with an emphasis on strong concept driven work, displaying an understanding of context (over) rather than a trend led graphic style. You will graduate with the knowledge and skills for a broad range of future careers and post-graduate study. 2 //// Our students become creative thinkers with strong technical expertise. Our students have continually been successful in achieving awards from prestigious competitions held by D&AD, ISTD, YCN, RSA as well as the YouGov Data Design Awards. Student work has been published in a range of publications, zines and blogs such as InformForm, Creative Review, Law Magazine and Computer Arts magazine. We recommend applicants to attend one of our open days. Dates can be found on www. ravensbourne.ac.uk/ courses/open-days. At open days you can attend subject talks as well as building and facilities tours with our students. Offers will be made based on the merit of the UCAS application, portfolio and interview.
