3D Computer Generated Imagery: Architectural Visualisation FdSc

Course overview

You can still apply to BU (including through UCAS Extra). Please apply through UCAS as soon as possible; your application can only be assessed once we have received it from UCAS.


This course is delivered at Bournemouth and Poole College

Computer Generated Imagery has really expanded over the past few years. CGI representations are now used in a huge range of areas including technical advertising, (such as Dyson, mobile phone promotions and car design) corporate presentations, photo-realistic special effects, engineering simulations and virtual environments. At Bournemouth and Poole College we have been involved in a number of projects that have covered areas including short film animations, scientific visualisation, avatar construction and games modelling.

This course is designed to meet the needs of the architectural visualisation industry and to enable students to develop into innovative and creative designers who can represent complex architectural structures in a visually appealing way using 3D environments.
