International Teachers’ and Advisers’ Conference 2021

Why your students should consider the UK as their destination of choice for their specialist arts education
Did you know 1 in 10 jobs in the UK is in the creative industries? Or that the creative industries are the fastest-growing sector of the global economy? And that the creative sector is future proof? Join staff and current international students from three specialist creative arts institutions to hear everything the UK can offer including an affordable education; career destinations; the history, heritage and culture of the creative arts in the UK; the focused model of delivery and how we can support international students to make the leap to studying abroad! The session will be an informative presentation followed by discussion with current international students studying a creative arts degree in the UK.

Learning outcomes:

• An overview of how the UK differs from our competitor countries in the delivery of higher education.
• An introduction to the admissions process and the financial implications of studying in the UK.
• An overview of the careers available to creative graduates.
• The pastoral and learning support available to your students.
• Hear direct from the student perspective - straight from international students currently enjoying the experience of a UK arts education.
