Bring your creativity into teaching

Ever wondered how to bring your creative expertise into the classroom? Based at our Brighton campus, this MA is designed for those who want to teach in arts schools, universities, and industry training environments, places where creativity and innovation are at the heart of learning. This course is led by lecturers who are not just academics, but active creatives. You’ll hear from screen professionals, university leaders, and creative entrepreneurs, all sharing practical insights into how to teach creatively, and how to teach creativity itself.

“Students get the opportunity to learn with peers of different backgrounds, to see how their learning about teaching or business is applied in those contexts, and to gain new experiences, contacts, and opportunities beyond what they’d initially expect in their specialisms.

They can expect flexibility, depth, industry relevance, faculty expertise, and a great balance of theory and practice. The course is amazing both for students’ learning experience and for the professional opportunities they can access once they graduate.”
