A one-year investment with lifetime returns: LABASAD launches its Online Master in Brand Design

At LABASAD, Barcelona School of Arts & Design, everyone is committed to cultivating creativity. Through their many masters courses in design, the 100% online school has been educating and shaping the next generation of designers. To help sculpt careers even further, they’ve now launched their Online Master in Brand Design, a holistic one-year programme that dissects both the macro and micro nuances of designing for contemporary brands today. Before it dives into the details, the programme takes a step back and looks at the bigger picture – the expansive history of branding – and then digs into the specific modules that develop key skill sets, leaving all students ready to jump into the industry. “The programme covers the full spectrum of brand design, from the historical and psychological foundations to the latest research methodologies, strategic positioning, creative execution and launch planning. By combining strong theoretical grounding with hands-on practical training across a range of disciplines like typography, illustration, packaging design and presentation skills, the programme equips students with an unparalleled level of expertise,” says Storm Wiggett, Director of the master’s programme. The programme’s deep, rigorous and comprehensive approach sets it apart from other online courses focusing on a single discipline or sharpening a particular skill set, such as graphic or UX design. This panoptic perspective is true of all of LABASAD’s programmes, which harnesses the best advantages of online learning – their programmes are flexible, allowing students from all across the world to join in and connect. So far, the school has helped students from Spain, the UK, Germany, Mexico, and Belgium, among others, to take the big leap into their careers. All classes are recorded, which means students can freely access the content if they’ve missed a class, or dip back in for a quick refresh. To add to this, programmes are limited to 25 students, ensuring every student gets quality time with and feedback from the instructor.
