Overview
This English for Creative Disciplines course from The Glasgow School of Art focuses on the language and study skills you need to study a creative subject. Instead of exam preparation or vocabulary practice, you will practise English through creative tasks, projects, and assessments that reflect the way we teach at The Glasgow School of Art.
This approach helps you to improve your English and also to prepare for your main programme at the GSA.
This course will help you to:
Develop your academic English in practical situations
Understand how creative disciplines work at GSA
Increase your confidence as a creative practitioner
Build skills that support lifelong language learning
Programme Structure
- Module 1: The studio project will relate to the topic ‘Objects’, which involves a visual response to an object from the GSA Archives and Collections.
- Module 2: The collaborative studio project is an exploration of interior or exterior spaces through creating a multisensory experience.
- Module 3: The collaborative studio project will focus on sustainable practices and processes in art and design; the students will have to create a small series of work engaging with sustainability and related issues like climate emergency; the language-based outputs will include a presentation of the creative work, a discussion of sustainable practices, processes, themes and methods relevant to the students’ prospective disciplines, and an annotated bibliography on a similar topic.

General requirements
In order to apply for the PS ECD for Creative Disciplines, the students have to have a conditional offer for any GSA course which requires them to improve their language skills up to a level required by the prospective course. These requirements will be different for undergraduate and postgraduate courses and so they affect the entry requirements for the PS ECD Course; check your programme website for details.
They also need a UKVI approved English test, such as IELTS UKVI or Pearson PTE Academic UKVI, taken within 2 years of the proposed course start date.
Depending on the student’s current English language scores and the GSA UG/PG programme, the student can join the PS ECD course at three intake points to undertake all three modules (14 weeks), Modules 2 and 3 (10 weeks), or only the last third Module (5 weeks). The PS ECD Course entry requirements are explained in the next section.
