Digital Design and Media – Surface Pattern and Textiles (top up) BA (Hons)

Level 6 Bachelor of Arts with Honours Degree in Digital Design and Media (Surface Pattern and Textiles), awarded by the University of Gloucestershire, and regulated by the Office for Students. <br/><br/>On this exciting future focussed programme, you will explore and develop the creative, critical, professional, and personal skills needed in the competitive and rapidly changing digital media landscape. The course and methods of study allow you to engage with the contemporary issues and practices which are transforming creative design, production, and consumption. <br/><br/>Emphasis can be placed on a medium of your choice and you will be encouraged to work outside of conventional forms, where appropriate, so that you are able to investigate and continually respond to the changing conventions of the sector. You will have the opportunity to develop strong digital creative skills which will make you highly employable. This programme is also ideal for employees who want to develop digital skills for career progression or to change careers. <br/><br/>We offer pathways in Digital Media, Digital Graphics, Digital Photography, 3D Design Visualisation, Surface Pattern and Textiles, Concept Art for Games and Film, and Visual Effects for Film and Games. Applicants will select their chosen pathway at the application stage, and will not have the opportunity to switch between pathways once they have commenced their studies. Some of the modules on this course will be studied collaboratively by students on all pathways, whilst other modules will be specific to the specialist pathway you are studying. <br/><br/>This course is available on a full-time basis and is taught in-person at our Yeovil College campus. <br/><br/>The full-time course is studied over 1 academic year, and students are typically timetabled for two days per week. <br/><br/>This course is designed to allow those who already hold a relevant Level 5 qualification, such as a Foundation Degree, to top-up to BA (Hons) level. If youre looking at starting your university-level journey in Digital Design and Media, you would need to look at studying another qualification first. At Yeovil College University Centre, we offer the FdA Digital Design and Media course across seven different specialist pathways; successfully completing this would allow you to then apply to ‘top-up’ to a full BA (Hons) qualification.
