"The best thing about the MA course at NTU is that we're not kept separate from the other courses so a diverse range of subjects get to work together and find inspiration from each other. Also the international community within the University is incredible. Because of the openness of the course I have met some amazingly talented people from all over the world.
"I enjoyed being able to work self-motivated in an environment of fantastic facilities while being support by highly practised staff. My dyslexia support over the year was faultless and I was helped and supported tremendously by a team of dedicated staff. I could not have done it without them."
Sandrea Simons, MA Fine Art
"I enjoyed the professionalism of my tutors during my studies. They helped me to push and expand my boundaries and goals higher and deeper. Besides this, my tutors had as big a passion as I had for my own studies. NTU itself is an open space and can be greatly helpful to all students in knowing what they need to complete during their time here.
"I used to study Art and Design in a very modern place with futuristic thought adapted to all new idea and technologies. Here, it is like a combination of beautiful traditional values and new technological methods. Therefore, I have been able to approach and exercise these important ideas as an inspiration for my design style."
On-You Lee, MA Decorative Arts
"My tutor's enthusiasm and knowledge of Graphic Design was infectious during my studies. Our trip to Berlin was a special experience, too, and taking in the Bauhaus was a mini pilgrimage.
"The opportunity to actually deliver some software training lectures during the course was a great challenge and an excellent opportunity. I was also able to begin to experience research, which was an exciting opportunity."
Steve O'Brien, MA Graphic Design
"The amazing facilities are only one aspect of NTU but a very important one. The best thing for me about studying here was the multinational creative ambience that surrounds the campus and allows students to explore their own ideas and creativity. Students are supported with tutor advice but are still in charge of project development, time management and research.
"After the Masters programme, I feel I have the confidence to work as a designer. Throughout this year I often felt challenged: this challenge allowed me to gain confidence in what I do. I now know that anything can be achieved as long as I show determination and belief in my strengths."
Lucy Wilhelm, MA Graphic Design
