University for the Creative Arts - UCA (reviews)

I thoroughly enjoy my course and the range of subject we study. The content is very modern and is up to date with current social media advance such as AI. The university does well to encourage our studies in these topics with extra seminars from outside lecturers, as well as workshops with the wide range of facilities the University has to offer. This includes screen printing, digital printing, textiles work and the studios where you can hire out equipment and the studio to run your own photoshoot. Campus life is very supportive and there is wide range of support for a variety of needs the students may require. However I have struggled to understand specific requirements within my course for assessments due to the fact it is a new course, therefore there isn’t previous work or materials we can use as a framework. I believe this university and course was the right choice for me and I enjoy my studies here.

No doubt, UCA offers the best in creativity and innovation. Every course is well taught, every class brings inspiration that propel good result. UCA brings out the best in their students and build them to be solution providers to their world.

I find my coursework for my course (Interior Design) to be really well structured and manageable. Although I would have preferred a different order of coursework, understandably everyone is different!
I also love the strong social aspect the University has created- there are so many points of contact, forums and groups to join! Which makes it easy to also get help and feedback on your work.

The university is a genuine design university that takes into account the diverse community of students coming to study different design programs. The university brings a “open to all” learning experience by allowing multiple equipments and tools thought to be used by a single degree program to everyone. This allows a design student to explore many ways to bring their ideas to life.
The university is very considerate of people’s beliefs and backgrounds, bringing true harmony amongst teams and students.
The university however pushes students to be self motivated and to work on their own which some struggle to do in long projects.
Overall, it is a good recommended University.
