Arts University Plymouth (AUP) offers foundation courses, three year undergraduate BA (Hons) and one year MA courses in a range of creative subjects.

If you are a student based in China, and you are considering a degree in art, design, craft or digital media and want to be part of a truly global community of creative learners, you can start your studies with ArtsLink.

This unique programme offers students the opportunity to start a foundation in August (in Shanghai), and then start our distance-learning programme in January, before progressing to their second year in Plymouth in September! You will benefit from the ArtsLink campus, and Artslink’s own team of tutors will be on hand to provide guidance and support to students throughout the first year of their degree.

You can find out more about our partnership with ArtsLink here.
