Description

From the iconic designs of London's red Routemaster buses and the chopper bike to theatrical productions like Phantom of the Opera and exquisite fashion at Dior and Chloe in Paris; Central Saint Martins' alumni have made a profound impact on our lives. Our staff and students continue to build on the success of our past by pushing the boundaries of the practice of art and design and art and design education.

At Central Saint Martins we have 2 Semester Study Abroad programmes: Integrated Semester Programme and Free Elective Semester Programme.

The Integrated Semester Programme (ISP) enables overseas University students to attend a degree course at Central Saint Martins for either one, two or three terms as part of their ongoing studies. Students on this programme will integrate onto the undergraduate degree courses working alongside our full time students. Students need to be self-motivated and able to manage their time and workload.

The Free Elective Semester Programme (FESP) is a new and unique programme, drawing on the core strengths of the internationally-renowned college, to offer modular-based courses for 14 week semesters. The programme allows flexibility to choose across courses in Fashion, Graphic Design, Studio Art, Art History and Cultural Studies. The programme is based in Clerkenwell, Central London. At the end of the semester there will be an optional study trip to Barcelona.

Central Saint Martins is also part of University of the Arts London, Europe's largest and most influential university for art, design, fashion, communication and the performing arts.
