Recently, BUV collaborated with Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) to launch the ‘50th Anniversary Hybrid Challenge’ – a competition for BUV students of the Creative Contemporary Practice programme, to celebrate the 50 years of bilateral diplomatic relationship between Vietnam and the UK. Furthermore, they are also invited to a lecture with a representative of AUB about Graphic Design practice, to further expand their perspective on the expertise.
In October 2023, BUV welcomed a delegation of faculty representatives from AUB for an exciting visit and the initiation of collaborative programmes. Mr. Tim Metcalf, the Director of School – Arts and Communication at AUB, delivered a lecture to students majoring in Contemporary Creative Practice. The class was conducted in an enthusiastic atmosphere, providing students with a fresh perspective on the field of Graphic Design.
