A Focus on Creative Subjects

Birmingham City University (BCU) ranks in the UK Top 30 for a range of creative subjects (The Guardian and The Times 2026) thanks to its industry-standard facilities and expert staff who equip students with the knowledge and skills to succeed in the creative industries.

The Online Summer School will run from Monday 20th to Friday 24th July 2026.
