You're invited to join us in Tokyo to meet the world's number 1 art and design university!
Studying at the Royal College of Art places you in London: a city internationally renowned for its creativity, culture and diversity - the perfect place to develop your creative career in. What do prospective students need to know about living and studying in the UK?
You’re invited to meet Prof. Christoph Lindner (President and Vice-Chancellor of the Royal College of Art), Lorna Gozzard (Director of Engagement, Brand & Marketing) and Prof. Rut Blees Luxemburg (Reader in Urban Aesthetics, Senior Research Fellow, Photography MA). We will ask RCA alumni about studying in London and their achievements since.
