This is an extremely flexible option which allows individuals to tailor the course to suit their needs. So, students can use 'live' projects or issues within their workplace as a start point for their MA and use this opportunity to reflect on current work practises with a view to improving or re-engineering them.

This online course, which can be undertaken full-time over a year or part-time over two years, consists of six modules that work concurrently to enrich your understanding and capabilities as a designer.  Alongside these core modules you will develop, research and deliver a design project or portfolio of projects of your choice. In this way you can tailor your studies to your individual aspirations and ambitions and your work agenda.
