Ranked as the No. 1 Design College in the world for the past nine consecutive years, the prestigious Royal College of Arts, London (RCA) visited the Fine and Applied Arts (FAA) Division of Mahidol University International College (MUIC) last week to offer a portfolio workshop for FAA’s Communication Design Program (CDP).

Attended by a large body of CDP students and faculty, the 2-hour workshop focused on the strategies and content that the RCA selection board values in making admission selections from the vast number of postgraduate applications received every year.

CDP students received invaluable advice, which will ideally give them a leg up and increase their acceptance odds in the coming years. As talks continue to develop between RCA and FAA regarding additional projects and collaboration between our two institutions, the future looks promising for FAA students and MUIC. Aim high and keep working hard, MUIC students!
