Falmouth: The place for you

Do you dream of creating animated characters to rival Shrek and Donkey? Is your ambition to design performance wear for the next generation of sports celebrities or a collection for the catwalk? Or would you prefer to report from the world's news hotspots or give Max Clifford a run for his money as PR to the stars?

If you wish to follow in the footsteps of thousands of successful graduates, then look no further than University College Falmouth – the best place to prepare you for a creative career.

"This year, we are launching a raft of dynamic new courses to increase our range of higher education opportunities in art, design and media yet further," explained University College Falmouth's Director of Marketing & Student Recruitment, Jeremy Whitaker. "From degrees in Digital Animation, Performance Sportswear Design and Public Relations to Fashion Design, Marine and Natural History Photography and Press Photography, we offer some of the finest new facilities and teaching expertise in the country, so if you haven't yet taken up the offer of a university place, find yours at Falmouth."

Students enrolling from this September will benefit from enviable and distinctive new learning environments – a bespoke Fashion Centre at Woodlane, as well as a brand new Digital Animation suite at Tremough and a multi-million-pound Photography Centre.

There is also a limited number of places available on established degree courses in 3D Design and Garden Design, Contemporary Crafts and Spatial Design, Textile Design and Broadcasting, English with Creative Writing and English with Media Studies, Film Studies and Journalism.

University College Falmouth is now also part of the network of Skillset Academies – Skillset being the Sector Skills Council for the Audio Visual Industries – which will create even greater opportunities for the College's media students.
