Online Study

Creativity is a force for innovation: and it's not confined to campus. 

Since 2016 our online undergraduate and master's courses have given students the opportunity to take control of their future career. All online courses are studied 100% remotely, at a time and place that suits you.

You can study around work, alongside childcare or caring commitments, or just in a way that better fits your lifestyle.

You can work while studying online

The design of our online degrees at Falmouth means you can access your course content anytime, anywhere. You can also study part-time, making it possible for you to study while working. 

Our online courses are intended to be flexible; the time required to study each week will vary based on the level of study, the module week, and your individual learning pace.

The important thing to remember is that you can complete these hours at a time that suits you; all lectures are recorded and can be replayed at any time, so can fit around work or lifestyle commitments.

"It meant that I could study alongside working."

 

"While I had a lot of real-world experience, I didn’t have any qualifications, and I knew that if I wanted to progress, I’d need one. I also loved studying with designers from different countries – it really made me appreciate the cultural impact of graphic design."

"The flexibility appealed to me - I like to travel and studying from anywhere was a brilliant option."

 

"I’ve never been able to identify a specific niche of art and design that I would like to study, and the roundedness of the degree offered me the opportunity to explore multiple subjects whilst being able to investigate what I wanted to specialise in."

"The course opened me up to new people, ideas, opportunities - I can literally say that it changed my life."

 

I was working, so Falmouth’s course would allow me to study at home in my own time and complete the course in two years. I was very impressed by what the course offered and by the expertise of the course leader."
