ILLUSTRATION

A Postgraduate Certificate in Illustration provides students with the fundamental principles and contextual understanding required in being an illustrator. With the exception of one liberal studies component, courses are studio-based and require competency in draftsmanship. Students engage in visual problem-solving, text-to-image translations and media exploration, while developing individual methodologies and an awareness of contemporary issues that affect the practice. Assignments include life and observational drawing, editorial, advertising and book illustration.

The minimum passing grade for courses tagged with "†" is 60% (C-).
