Art – Past Established in 1838 as The Design, it was only the second design school in Britain and provided training to the manufacturing industry. It was one of the pioneers of and design education in the UK, and since its inception the School has often been in the forefront of the various debates and initiatives that have taken place within the sector. Art School – Present Today the Art School is home to around 3,500 students from all corners of the world who study a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses in a creative, community environment, taking inspiration from specialist staff, and each other. We place importance on experiment and generating creative surprise. We have a playful yet serious approach to media, materials and processes. We are intellectually and academically challenging. We have mutual respect for each others disciplines and foster an art and design community within the school and the city. We are creative, unconventional and professional. Our close link with the city, its creative communities and cultural institutions is a vital element of the Art School. The scope of activities within the School connects us with an unusually wide range of external organisations, including industrial, commercial and professional bodies, arts associations and galleries. And our advisory board, consisting of talented individuals and artists from a range of areas, ensures our future plans are informed by the needs of cultural organisations and creative industries. Art School – Future Recognising how important it is to move with the times and provide an environment that is in touch with the real world, the School of Art has secured £34 million to invest into its equipment and spaces. This process has already started, with the refurbishment of our workshops and the purchase of equipment, and will continue with the build of a brand new school of art school, which will sit next to and compliment the original art school from 1838. This cutting edge facilities will not only provide our students with state of the art resources but drive forward the City's 'Cultural Ambition' strategy for social and economic growth. -

Profile
The Royal College of Art provides a unique educational experience in art and design, to a community of carefully selected and exceptionally talented students. Our aim is to nurture their creativity and their ability to innovate, to develop their practical and intellectual skills and to expand their horizons. All our courses are taught by distinguished artists, designers and thinkers, and students have an unrivalled opportunity to study art in a design environment, and design in an art environment. The College is exclusively postgraduate.
School of Communication
In a world where environmental, social, political, religious, technological and professional issues and structures are changing kaleidoscopically, no area of cultural activity is more challenging than the field of communications. With traditional boundaries between disciplines dissolving, the ethos of this School, and of the College, is ideally equipped to enable students to follow a programme of pre-professional experimentation tailored to their individual needs and skills.
The School of Communication at the RCA, led by Neville Brody, encourages – above all – a dynamic, cross-disciplinary approach to study and practice that is rooted in exploration and invention through the use of mixed studios and cross-electives. The broad spectrum of skills we embrace extends from making things to making thought, and carries us across an ever shifting landscape of intertwined activity that extends from print to film and time-based media; image-making and sound design to game play; and social enquiry and digital boundaries to physical installations. Teaching staff are all recognised practitioners in their own fields, bringing depth of experience to academic practice, and are joined by visiting professors and guest lecturers who act as informants or disruptors. School of Communication students work in collaboration with other designers and artists across the College in concentrated workshops and college-wide initiatives, and can draw directly from their expertise. Our active approach to exhibiting student work and to seeking creative projects through collaboration with our industry partners leads to constant opportunities for exposure and engagement. Industry partnerships with Google, BlackBerry and the BBC continue to bring pivotal projects and opportunities, while both students and staff enjoy exposure through exhibitions, competitions, publications and festivals.
Research is a vital part of our School, with MPhil and PhD candidates working alongside practice-based students, informing and challenging our curricula and being made visible through a dynamic series of events and talks.

The two year full time programme in graphic design serves the following aims:
1. To provide the graphic design profession in Zimbabwe with suitably trained personnel.
2. To develop students problem solving abilities and critical thinking skills.
3. To enable, advise and assist students to develop their creative potential within the subject.
