The Print MA programme at the Royal College of Art offers a unique and expansive exploration of the world of print. Through a combination of practical work, exhibitions, discussions, and writing, students delve into the rich cultural history and contemporary relevance of print. The programme welcomes students from diverse backgrounds, including fine art, design, illustration, and more. With a focus on individual development, students have the opportunity to create prints directly or work with print through archives, media, and installation. The three-term programme includes orientation sessions, group exhibitions, and an independent research project, culminating in a public panel discussion. Join us to expand your understanding and practice in the field of print.

About the course

Understand the field of print through making, exhibiting, publishing, discussion and writing.

The programme positions Print as an expanded field which situates the printing press as the prehistory of computing and the web. We collectively explore the many ways technically mediated images alter and expand the world. You work from a range of positions, some working through print, making prints directly and others work with print, using archives, broadcast media, collage and installation to explore the rich cultural legacies of printed matter. We aim to develop the potential of each student in ways appropriate to their concerns and consciously select an extremely diverse group of students to creatively expand the field.

Entry Requirements

You’re expected to have completed a BA degree. In recent years, students have come from fine art, printmaking, painting, sculpture, photo media, conservation, illustration, design, textiles, architecture and interactive arts courses. While many students enter the course after years of independent work, we also accept students directly from undergraduate courses.

We are looking for candidates who are excited about the potential of engaging with the College-wide peer group, and making the most of the educational opportunities the Programme offers.
