With today’s roles being reinvented at an astonishing pace, you might find the only way to keep up is to devote another year to upskilling.

Where better to do that than at Media Design School, Asia Pacific’s number one ranked school for digital creativity and design, top 10 in the world for creative advertising, and home of an accelerated Master of Design programme, suitable for those who want to qualify in under a year and then get straight back into the workforce or dive further into research.

So, join us on the evening of 17th October where you can hear from superstar alumni Cannes Lion Grand Prix winner, Léon Bristow, and other notable speakers such as Associate Professor Sarah Elsie Baker, author of Designing Gender: A Feminist Toolkit, Bloomsbury (2024).

Mix and mingle with alumni, faculty, and current students while enjoying some kai, and if you’re keen, make plans to explore further study. 

Let’s get 2025 started now. And let’s start to future proof you.
