Licenciatura en Ilustración (BA - Hons)

Bachelor in Illustration (BA - Hons) This is a brand-new and exciting course for 2013 which has developed out of the extremely successful illustration stream within our Graphic Design degree. You will not only develop your strengths as an illustrator but also learn to build your own practice when you graduate. You’ll have exposure to a wide range of applications for illustration (from packaging, editorial and publishing to storyboarding, character design and comic strips), using both traditional and new media to explore your creative ambitions. You’ll take advantage of excellent links with industry and professional illustrators, and on graduation will have the choice of a wide range of career options.

The emphasis is on developing your practice as an illustrator rather than teaching you to draw. This is a hard-working and challenging programme, offering fantastic opportunities for you to develop into a sought after practicing professional.

The University has roots dating back to 1846 and the original Leeds School of Art. In 1842 the Leeds Mechanics Institute merged with the Literary Society, which led to the formation of The Leeds Government School Design four years later. In 1903 the School moved to Vernon Street which we still have today.

Leeds Arts University is the only specialist arts university in the North of England, our students enjoy a small, close-knit community in a creative atmosphere where anything feels possible. We believe this is the best environment in which to grow as an artist, designer, musician or filmmaker.
