Hear from our alumni

“Postgrad at Bath Spa is definitely very self led”

You're very independent, and you get to follow all your own ideas, but you also have access to a whole cohort of people. The technicians were a massive influence [and] help when you have an idea and you don't know how to make it come to life.

– Zoe Stanton, MA Design graduate
