Overview

Research networks for postgraduate students are common and provide valuable platforms for students to test and progress their research and to disseminate their research outcomes. A comparable forum for undergraduate art, design and media specialist students appears not to exist. It is recognised that such undergraduate events can provide important opportunities for students to advance their research; to learn with others, to progress their ideas further and to celebrate their final year research.



This project and its annual collaborative symposia aims to help students; to provide an opportunity for students to develop their research work and for students and staff to work collaboratively.

The 'Designs on Research' HEA funded free workshop was hosted at the Arts University College at Bournemouth, Dorset, UK on the 25th June 2012. Information is provided within the blog accordingly.

2011/12 event

Poster design: Lauren Davidson BA(Hons)Graphic Design Level 6, Arts University at Bournemouth, 2011.

The annual symposium brought together BA (Hons) Graphic Design final year students from the Arts University College at Bournemouth and Cardiff Metroplitan University and Coventry University - students shared in their research work - through presentations, group design work and poster exhibition. It is hoped further universities will join this exciting event.

The opportunity for students to develop further and use their research experience beyond the assessment requirement of the course could help students further in their careers. It could inspire their research aspirations and support their application to postgraduate study or research related vocational roles and contexts.
