Visual Communication

About this course

Visual communication is the practice of conveying ideas, information, and meaning through visual means: through graphic design, illustration, typography, branding, digital media, motion graphics, and the many hybrid forms that characterise contemporary creative practice. It is a discipline that sits at the intersection of artistic sensitivity and practical problem-solving, asking how visual choices, from the selection of a typeface to the composition of an image, affect how a message is received. Effective visual communicators understand both what looks right and why it works. At Leeds Arts University, one of the UK's specialist higher education institutions for art and design, this three-year full-time programme takes a multidisciplinary approach, giving you the space to explore a breadth of creative sectors and to pursue your own interests within the broad field of visual communicatio
