Why choose an Illustration degree at Middlesex?

BA Illustration will provide you with your own workspace in our specialist studio The Grove – our £80 million state-of-the-art learning facility.

 

Our staff are practising illustrators and designers with extensive experience in their specialist fields and excellent links to the illustration industry. We have a number of illustrators, agents, publishers and designers who make themselves available to discuss your portfolios. Many of our students get the opportunity to participate in live projects and publish their work before they graduate.

 

Our north London campus is perfectly located for you to explore museums and galleries to gain inspiration. In previous years, illustration students have also visited Edinburgh, Venice and Lisbon to be inspired by new surroundings.

 

What you will gain

We will work with you to develop your skills as a professional illustrator and develop a personal visual language.

 

Our students produce outstanding industry-standard work and leave the course with an impressive portfolio to launch their careers. Take a look at some of the work from last year’s graduates on our Creative Graduates 2022 website.

 

Many of our students go on to work in magazine publishing, narrative and children's books, editorial illustration, advertising and animation thanks to our strong links within the creative industries.
