About this course

What will I learn?

Information Experience Design (IED) is the creative practice of intervening in, designing and generating experiences of complex ideas and phenomena using data and experience design. The shared medium in IED is information: you鈥檒l work with both "cold" data (quantifiable numeric data) and "warm" data (the data of interrelationship). This approach allows you to build an exciting personal practice in living systems and computational systems.

In IED, you might design a light installation in a forest, a global museum, a podcast fiction, a breathing chair, a VR adventure in a microbiome, an emotionally responsive game for dogs, or a wearable sensing deep time. IED projects go beyond the personal and embrace collective, trans-individual, and more-than-human perspectives.

Our teaching approach is unique and experimental, representing cutting-edge art and design education informed by world-class IED practitioner research. You鈥檒l need maturity and dedication. The programme's intellectual content is cutting-edge and challenging. You鈥檒l engage deeply with society and the environment, integrating experimentation with activism and empathy.

Entry requirements

For international students

Candidates are selected entirely on merit and applications are welcomed from all over the world. The selection process will consider creativity, imagination and innovation as demonstrated in your portfolio, as well as your potential to benefit from the programme and to achieve high MA standards overall. Students come from a wide range of backgrounds. While you may come directly from first-degree programmes across art and design, you may have also joined the programme with professional experience in industry, or from a background such as science, technology and the humanities. If you are not a national of a majority English-speaking country you will need the equivalent of an IELTS Academic or UKVI score of 6.5 with a 6.0 in the Test of Written English (TWE) and at least 5.5 in other skills. Students achieving a grade of at least 6.0, with a grade of 5.5 in the Test of Written English, may be eligible to take the College鈥檚 English for Academic Purposes course to enable them to reach the required standard.

*There may be different IELTS requirements depending on your chosen course.
