Entry routes into the world of
Art and Design
Entry routes are varied. Some creative artists have
a diploma or a degree, but these do not guarantee success,
and not all practising artists, sculptors or authors
have formal qualifications. Many craft workers are self-taught.
However designers in fashion, textiles, interior or
graphics usually have a very specific degree that is
based on practical work.
Some colleges offer diplomas and degrees in journalism,
and there are postgraduate qualifications available.
A career in publishing can be helped by a one-year postgraduate
diploma after taking a first degree in any subject.
