The future of design lies in your hands.
The UK design industry is growing at twice the industry average and despite the uncertainty of the last few years, it has proven to be incredibly resilient and adaptive to change. In 2020*, as many as one in twenty workers in the UK (1.97 million people) worked within the design economy, in roles that span everything from product design and graphics to UX and architecture.

Kickstart your creative career in design
Whether you are a physical or digital designer, the most successful creators use applied design thinking to solve creative problems and influence decision making.
Roles that designers work within in are vast in scope and all depend on your particular specialism. While physical designers create for an array of product packaging, furniture, buildings, and consumer goods, digital designers might find work in advertising, marketing or in the creation of virtual spaces such as games or apps.
