Overview

This Professional Doctorate in Art and Design at The University of Wales Trinity Saint David is designed to help you make use of all you have learned in life up to this point. It helps you reflect on the past experiences professional and personal.

We take a very global view of design and so are equally happy for areas of design from China and South East Asia, India and South America to be the subject of your reflection and your research.

We are passionate about how you can reimagine how communication, media, art and design works within your professional practice.
