The Postgraduate Diploma in Design is an opportunity for you to upskill in creative practice, modern design technology and theory.

Extend your design speciality or explore new horizons. You'll have the opportunity to specialise in fashion design, industrial design, photography, spatial design, textile design or visual communication design.

This programme will give you an introduction to postgraduate research processes and contemporary design theory. You'll push the boundaries of your design practice with a research-led independent project. You'll also have elective courses and courses focused on creative entrepreneurship, exhibition or writing in the creative arts.

If you don't have an honours degree this programme can allow you to progress to postgraduate design study.
