The Post-Graduate 'Root'


Post-Graduate Courses  (MA)

Most budding Art Directors and Copy Writers then tend to then go on and take a year-long Masters Postgraduate course in ‘Creative Advertising’ or ‘Copywriting and Art Direction’ at Universities or Colleges. Some of the best are listed below:

Falmouth

West Herts

SCA

Napier


It is here that students work on briefs for real products to build up their portfolio with the aim of securing a Creative Placement on graduation. It is often here where creative partnerships are formed. (although there are organizations such as ‘The Book Club’ (see http://www.nabs.org.uk/career_management.htm or ‘D&AD Talent Pool’ who help ‘matchmake’ creative teams if you fail to meet a suitable partner at university or college) (Source:IPA.com)
