Introduction

Academic Development helps to realise the College’s strategic vision of advancing art and design education through the review and renewal of its academic offer. This includes the delivery of cross-College programmes and units, currently the Graduate Diploma in Art and Design; Master’s in Research (MRes) RCA, Postgraduate Certificate and Master’s in Creative Education, AcrossRCA, the College-wide unit, and the Pre-Sessional English language courses.

Our Programmes

The Masters programmes offered by Academic Development focus on developing professional practice and research with an emphasis on interdisciplinarity and collaboration. All offers involve a balance between core units that are fundamental to that programme and elective units selected from across the College’s academic schools.
