INTERNATIONAL


The School of Art and Design of Sant Cugat (EAD Sant Cugat) is a public school closely linked to its city, with a vocation for public service that promotes specialized training in official studies of Plastic Arts and Design in the field of Graphic and Audiovisual Communication. We offer a Vocational Education and Training course (CFGM in Catalan and Spanish) with specialization in Support to the Printed Graph Product, and Higher Education courses (CFGS in Catalan and Spanish) specialized in Animation, Illustration, Printed Graphics and Interactive Graphics.


The pedagogical and organizational autonomy of the EAD Sant Cugat and the teamwork of the teaching staff allow for the development of flexible measures that can meet the demands of the students.


Our studies facilitate continuous training with an international projection, connecting the Vocational Education and Training course to the Higher Education courses, and thus offering the possibility of obtaining two degrees in three years while supporting international mobility with the Erasmus Plus program.


The DNA of the school is formed by its dynamic, close and inclusive character and the Educational Project, which is based on quality and transversal education, and which aims to train professionals who are creative, critical and committed to the present surrounding them. The school is next to Barcelona, located in a unique space: on the site of a modernist tower called Casa Monaco. The EAD is in a quiet and green environment, close to the Collserola Natural Park, and five minutes from the center of Sant Cugat. It is well communicated for both public and road transport and it is in a dynamic university environment that offers all the services students may need.

HIGHER EDUCATION COURSES


Our specific and vocational courses aim to train the students to carry out a professional activity in the field of Graphic and Audiovisual Communication, either through narration, design or the graphic and audiovisual processing of information. Fixed, interactive or moving images are used, with a final printed and/or audiovisual result. One of the pedagogical aims of the school is to train students as creative professionals capable of self-management and of delving into their own knowledge and skills, so they can adapt the training acquired to their interests and respond to the changing conditions of the current labor market.


For this reason, the EAD offers different itineraries, all authorized by the Department of Education —among the Higher Education Courses— which allow students to obtain two certificates in three academic years (2×3) by extending the curriculum with the modules of the center and the tutorial monitoring of the Integrated Project. In order to make this curricular design possible, the EAD starts the Higher Education courses with a first introductory year to the family of Graphic and Audiovisual Communication. The second year is specialized and it also includes the Integrated Project and the Practical Working Training (internship) in work centers. The course finishes with a third year of another specialization where students can take their last semester abroad with an Erasmus program for either studies or internships.
