Course content
Develop new ways of experiencing, interacting and communicating.
How does communication influence the way we interact with the world around us? To answer this question, you will be encouraged to draw inspiration from a range of different methods and methodologies designed to deepen your critical reflection and augment your creative approach as you transform and redefine your professional communication practice. Interdisciplinarity is put into action in a programme that combines theory and practice, while engaging in playful experimentation.
We make space for conversation, intercultural exchange, new ideas and diverse voices. RCA MFA Communication students have established professional practices from a broad range of backgrounds and specialisms both within and beyond the creative arts.
Decide your direction
The RCA MFA Communication combines the choice of college wide electives with the structure of focused core units, so every student has a unique journey. You’ll be able to combine electives that reflect your particular interests, drawing on both theory and practice as you consider the social, political, environmental and philosophical implications of contemporary communication and how these might be used to transform your practice.
