BA Graphic & Media Design, Year One
BA Graphic & Media Design, Year Two
BA Graphic & Media Design, Year Three
FdA Design for Graphic Communication, Year One
FdA Design for Graphic Communication, Year Two
We have established a PPD Baseroom. This is near the entrance to the school (next to the BA Information Design studio). We encourage you to book one-to-one tutorials with us at any time of the year on Fridays to discuss work placements, volunteer work, post-graduate study, presentation and portfolio advice - or if you just fancy a bit of a chat with Catherine, Sarah or Anna. There will be a sign up sheet on the door for you to put your name down, or feel free to email either of us to set up a tutorial.
BA Graphic & Media Design, Year One The GMD Year One programme is made up of a lecture programme and a series of seminar sessions. The lecture programme is multi-discplinary. We have invited people from a range of different areas and specialisms: from a goldsmith to a cultural anthropologist to come in and talk to you. The aim of the programme is for you to start to see connections between your own emerging practice and other practitioners' methodologies and processes.
The Year One lecture programme runs on alternate Fridays in the Autumn and Spring terms, but you are more than welcome to also attend the Year Two lecture programme.
Day: Friday Time: 10am-11.30am Venue: Main Lecture Theatre (ground floor of the Printing & Publishing School)
Seminar Sessions
We will be holding seminar sessions after the lecture programmes. This will give you an opportunity to discuss the lectures in small groups and also to look at themes and subjects that relate to both your studio work and your VCT lectures.
The seminar session subjects for the Autumn term are:
Fri 24 October: Introduction and Reflection Brief Fri 7 November: Influences Fri 21 November: Experience Fri 5 December: Argument
Your seminar session tutors are: Sheena Calvert, Anna Gerber, Tony Todd and Joshua Trees.
Your seminar groups are the same as your VCT groups. This information is posted on the notice board outside the VCT/PPD office, D202..

There is one PPD brief. It is compulsory. It will be marked at the end of term. Marks will be sent to you in the post. Make sure the school office have your correct address.
Failure to submit briefs on time will result in a capped mark, and failure to submit them at all will result in failure of the unit. Failing any of the course units (studio, PPD, VCT) may result in not being able to progress to the second year.

BA Graphic & Media Design, Year Two The GMD Year Two programme is made up of a lecture programme and a series of seminar sessions. The lecture programme is multi-discplinary. We have invited people from a range of different areas and specialisms: from a trend forecaster to a writer to come in and talk to you. The aim of the programme is for you to start to see connections between your own emerging practice and other practitioners' methodologies and processes.
The Year Two lecture programme runs on alternate Fridays in the Autumn and Spring terms, but you are more than welcome to also attend the Year One lecture programme.
Day: Friday Time: 10am-11.30pm Venue: Main Lecture Theatre (ground floor of the Printing & Publishing School)
In addition to the lecture programme, PPD tutors will be working closely with individual pathways. There will be a PPD component to one of your studio projects.

In the afternoon there will be a series of informal talks and workshops in the studios which students can sign up for in advance.
MA Postgraduate study, November 14th 08: Also part of Open Studios, there will be series of presentations from students, staff and alumni of MA courses, in the UK, Holland and America. It is an opportunity to discuss issues, entry qualification and whether it is the right option for you post-graduation.

Details will appear on your notice board. Students from all pathways are welcome. This will work on a sign up basis and places will be limited.
