The reason I have chosen this course is to widen my range of knowledge and skills in the world of textiles design and to eventually gain employment using these skills.
I enjoy designing quirky, abstract pieces and I am inspired by the natural world and feel this contributes to the way I express my ideas.
I would welcome the opportunity to study at this university as the course teaches me 'a deep understanding of the context of my work' which will provide me with the expertise to allow me to be competitive in the real world.
Having visited Manchester on many occasions I find it a stimulating, multi cultural city. The good reputation of the university and the success of students finding work in their chosen area will be a real benefit to me.
