MSc Creative Advertising
The most successful course in Scotland for budding creatives. We teach practical skills and an understanding of the industry required for a career in advertising.
The world of advertising is fuelled by bright minds and creative thinkers. It generates millions of messages that reach consumers via an ever-increasing number of channels.
There are around 14,000 people employed in UK advertising, yet at its heart, only some 8% of employees are what are known as ‘creatives’. These are the art directors, copywriters and planners who are the creative powerhouse of the industry.
This course has been developed in collaboration with the Scottish Institute of Practitioners in Advertising (IPA) and is taught by leading practitioners.
