Course area introduction

There’s never been a more exciting time to enrol on one of Nottingham’s top creative courses! Are you ready for the challenge? 

Nottingham is a great city to become a creative professional and you’ll be studying right in the heart of Nottingham, at our brand new City Hub in the vibrant Creative Quarter, so there’s no better place to grow your talent. 

Our tutors are all passionate about their areas of expertise and they’ve all worked (or still work) in the industry themselves, so you’ll be benefiting from their years of experience. This is why our students consistently enjoy some of the highest achievement rates nationally. Join us for creative freedom and the opportunity to showcase your work in a professional exhibition at the end of the course. 

We have a large group of creative students, and student collaborations happen all the time, so you’ll be in excellent company. There are exciting enrichment trips to locations such as London, Berlin and Paris. Our students are regular winners at the annual Nottingham Young Creative awards – next year, it could be you! 

Every course enjoys great links with industry, so you’ll never be short of opportunities to put your learning into practice. You’ll learn your craft in some of the best facilities, using industry standard equipment and software and photography studio spaces.
