The Department

Welcome to the Department of Design & Multimedia.
Our Department is committed to educate critical thinkers, artists, creative designers, and responsible citizens for the new era, encouraging research and experimentation.

The programmes we offer provide a broad education delivering the ideal balance of practical, technological and theoretical learning. The courses build strong foundations in art practice, design and production methods and equip students with the tools necessary to conceive, develop and manage the fine art, graphic design, and multimedia projects of tomorrow.

The Department’s interdisciplinary approach fosters the critical, theoretical and creative exploration of fields such as typography and visual communication, interaction and interface design, virtual environments and information spaces, photography, painting, sculpture and printmaking and other pertinent areas.

Teaching is based on excellence in staff research and practice. Research active members of the academic staff and internationally acclaimed art and design practitioners teach high-calibre graduates how to become leaders in the creative industries.
