Graphic Design Programs in New Zealand

Whitecliffe College Of Arts and Design:
Whitecliffe is located in Auckland and is New Zealand's leading arts and design College. Whitecliffe will be celebrating in 2008, 25 years devoted to innovative, accessible and internationally recognised arts and design education. The College has three campuses located in the central city. Whitecliffe specialised in tertiary level arts and design education in the areas of fine arts; fashion design; graphic design; photography, film and video; arts administration and arts therapy. All programmes are registered and approved through the New Zealand Qualifications Authority and are recognised internationally.

At Whitecliffe, we maintain small class sizes (approx. 1:15) and focus on individual student instruction, quality teaching and support. Faculty are high qualified academics and successful practising artists, designers, educators, art administrators, therapists and researchers- many of them leaders in their field and some are engaged in significant research in their discipline. Whitecliffe provides a supportive learning environment that stimulates the incubation of new ideas and stretches the minds of our students. We offer students the opportunity to study overseas while still working towards their qualification. Whitecliffe has a 80% student retention and completion rate. We welcome international student inquiries.
