You’ll be encouraged to think creatively during your time at NTU, gaining technical skills based on a design brief around a current social, political or environmental issue.

Practical tasks will be set each day, culminating in exciting visuals suitable for a portfolio.

The tasks set will challenge preconceptions about the things around you and will help you develop, explore and experiment with unusual starting points.

DofE participants must book both the course and accommodation on campus for this to count towards your Gold Award.
Accommodation is booked separately at www.ntu.ac.uk/summeraccommodation

By the end of the course

You’ll have the beginnings of a portfolio of work, one that has been produced in an informal and creative, yet challenging, environment.

You’ll leave with a real hand-on experience of what it is like to be a design student at university, and an understanding of what admissions tutors are looking for.
