In increasingly competitive global markets, it is the brands with creative, engaging, and innovative advertising that stand out from the crowd.

The BA (Hons) Creative Advertising degree at Lincoln encourages students to consider creative solutions for the challenges of global marketing. It prepares them to learn how to develop their thoughts into concepts that can be turned into creative campaigns.

The course explores the relationship between conceptual thinking, copywriting, and design. It gives students the tools to develop an understanding of the integrated nature of effective advertising.

Students have the opportunity to work on creative briefs for clients through a range of media, from television and print to digital and ambient advertising, gaining the practical skills and insight needed to meet real-world challenges.

Our academics are experienced practitioners who maintain industry links, helping to create opportunities for work experience. The course has an extensive range of long-standing relationships with some of the biggest advertising agencies in the world such as VCCP, Grey, Leo Burnett, Saatchi & Saatchi, and Ogilvy.

Students are encouraged to enter, and have been successful in, national and international competitions, such as Design and Art Direction (D&AD), You Can Now (YCN), and Cannes Future Lions. Find out more about our students' recent competition success:
