How online master’s are helping creatives battle changing industries

The creative industry is evolving faster than ever, and for many designers, artists, and storytellers, staying ahead means continuously developing their skills.

Whether a creative is looking to refine their craft, pivot to a new role, or gain a deeper understanding of their field, an online master’s course at Falmouth University offers a flexible approach to learning without compromising on quality. Master’s are taught part-time, with each week’s content released to be studied whenever suits you.

With more than 120 years of creative education experience, Falmouth is a trusted institution when it comes to re-thinking creative education. Over the last ten years the university has used that experience and creative mindset to harness the opportunities online learning offers, and to build and refine a bespoke online learning platform designed specifically for remote learners to flourish – rather than simply adapting existing campus courses for online study.

The result? A dynamic, interactive learning experience that enables you to study alongside your career, personal projects, or other commitments without sacrificing the sense of connection that makes creative education so valuable.

At Falmouth, the online students benefit from the same expert teaching and industry insight as their on-campus counterparts, and have access to tutors actively working in the creative industries, offering real-world perspectives and mentorship. The university’s global reputation also means you’ll be learning in a diverse, international community, gaining connections and insights from creatives across different disciplines and backgrounds.

Often for working professionals, the appeal of online study isn’t just flexibility, but the relevance. Falmouth’s online degrees are designed with in-demand skills at their core, fusing creativity and innovation to help you future-proof your career.

Whether a freelancer looking to expand their practice; a senior creative wanting to stay ahead of industry shifts; or an emerging talent preparing for the next step, Falmouth’s programmes are structured to give all sorts of creatives the tools they need to thrive. And most importantly, an online degree from Falmouth is exactly that: a Falmouth designed and delivered degree. The university guarantees that students will graduate with the same respected qualification as any on-campus student, demonstrating to employers and clients that creativity knows no boundaries.
