Overview

The Non Linear Narrative master's programme from Royal Academy of Art, The Hague takes the entanglement of relations in the global information society as a starting point, in order to identify and interrogate complex socio-political issues and communicate them to a broad audience. The programme repositions the graphic design discipline in the changing professional landscape and extends it with new responsibilities towards society.

Career Prospects

Upon completion of Non Linear Narrative, you will be able to understand complex social and political themes, and how to determine your own position as a graphic designer. At the same time, you can find adequate visual and interactive forms to make those themes insightful to a large audience. 

The ideal graduate is a thoughtful investigative designer who is aware of current affairs, chooses their medium wisely, and is familiar with both traditional and new media. They aspire to a career in civil society organisations, such as public broadcasters or NGOs, and can set up an independent design practice. 

There is a growing need for socially involved, broadly-oriented designers. The Non Linear Narrative MA programme will teach you new ways of finding and telling stories and, therefore, asking the news to take position vis-à-vis the graphic design discipline.
