Course Structure
Stage 1: Foundations
Develop the essential technical design skills and the knowledge required to collaborate with other creative media students and professionals.
‘Web Design Fundamentals’ is the introductory module for students to learn the principles and practical tools of design for the web. Student will learn about design concepts, user experience, and visual communication, while considering how to use design fundamentals to meet specific user needs. Students will learn the fundamentals of user-centred design and how to create iterations of their designs based on users’ feedback. Moreover, they will be able to critique User Interface Designs and propose improvements. Broader issues of copyright and intellectual property will be addressed, and students will be introduced to academic writing styles.
This module is a counterpart to Web Design Basics, in which students learn the development side of web applications through basic markup languages (HTML, CSS and others as appropriate). Web standards and responsive layout techniques will be assessed and practiced, with students analysing existing sites and working on improvements to given problems. Industrial standards and best practices in web design and development will be introduced in this module; project management skills will also be developed.
‘Front-end Fundamentals’ introduces students to the basics of user interaction and front-end development for web. They will develop their programming skills with appropriate technologies to develop complex user interactions, culminating in the creation of an interactive and responsive web application.
This module is the culmination of Level 4 for Web Development students, in which they focus on developing the back-end of web applications. Students will be introduced to object-oriented programming (OOP), servers and databases, and explore the interrelationship between back-end and front-end. They will also develop their presentation skills for pitching concepts and project ideas.
Stage 2: Advanced - Refine & Expand
Broaden your scope to work on complex multidisciplinary projects in accordance with industry standard practices.
The module introduces students to professional working environments (or a facsimile thereof), through the ‘Creative Studio’ approach. It builds on foundational skills from Level 4 and introduces students to more advanced professional workflows in their chosen industry. This will include more advanced training in software and hardware, the exploration of complex production techniques, and the student’s ability to critically analyse and reflect on their own work. Students will undertake a number of prescribed projects briefs (the briefs available will be selected by the local campus faculty) led by a facilitator. Students will enhance their creative production skills through these projects, while also developing problem-solving skills, knowledge of cultural contexts, and the ability to engage with constructive feedback.
Creative Studio 2 enables students to contribute their specialised knowledge and skills through assigned roles in collaborative projects, to mirror industry practices in light of its convergence and creative interdependency. Students will build their essential abilities to plan and work in teams, as well as to contribute to extended projects incorporating a business perspective by considering individual strengths. The module also develops students' knowledge and skills in creative media business, equipping them with the tools needed for entrepreneurial working or involvement in creative studio business and marketing roles.
This module enables students to identify an area of professional interest and undertake research to develop a deep and sound knowledge in that area. The research undertaken should be comprehensive and consider the historical development/context of the topic area, existing research in the field, and relevant common production techniques. Throughout this module students will work towards developing the proposal for a Major Project. From the first draft of the research proposal they will develop a more detailed document, supported by broad scholarly research and a feasible methodology. Students will be supported to identify methodologies and outcomes appropriate for either an arts or sciences major project. At the end of this module students will have clearly defined the parameters of their Major Project and how it fits with their career objectives.
In Advanced Specialized Project students will develop their professional practice through the planning and implementation of an independent activity. The chosen activity may be focused on scholarship or practice, be undertaken individually or as part of a team, and may take place entirely on campus or involve a ‘live project’ from industry. By choosing an area of specialisation, students will develop a greater awareness of their professional interests and own the direction of their professional development and future career opportunities. Students will learn how to assess their own skills and knowledge and develop strategies to fill skills gaps as they prepare for their Major Project. The module also provides students with an opportunity to undertake ‘live projects’ to support the development of professional knowledge and skills within their chosen field of the creative industries, enhancing their understanding of current industry best practice.
Stage 3: Showcase
Execute a project of your own design which is of high quality and externally published, with the knowledge to commercialise if you choose. You'll also apply your skills through industry work placement.
The Major Project is the culmination of the undergraduate programme; it gives the student the opportunity to demonstrate their skills in a large scale, advanced level project. There are two options for the Major Project. There is an expectation that the final deliverable for this programme will be of a calibre such that it demonstrates the student’s capacity to progress into professional practice or postgraduate studies.
