I'm in my final year BA Graphics at Falmouth, UK. I'm thinking about doing an MA in Interative Design or similar - can anyone recommend any courses?
I quite like the one here in Falmouth, and also like living here, but I want to look around for other places aswell. Also the course here is very new and maybe not as established as some of the others.
I'm looking for courses in the UK, Germany, Ireland, Austria or Switzerland.
Places that I am already concidering are:
Newport - Multimedia & Information Design
Dublin Institute of Tech. - Interactive Media
FH Potsdam - Interface Design
Falmouth College of Arts - Interactive Art & Design
Any comments, or additions?
Thanks.

I think there is an MA in Bath, it's two years I think. Dunno what it's like. Bath is nice, not as nice as Falmouth.

yes, there is one at bath 1-1/2 years - sounds alright - but they all seem quite similar (at least what the prospectuses tell me)

I live in dublin, I'm considering starting a part-time masters in Digital Media (in D.I.T.) this year. I have a friend http://www.neonsoup.com/ finishing up this year, he said a lot of the stuff they teach is pretty basic, even down to photoshop skills, but It wouldn't turn me off 'cos most of the software I know I taught myself, and I reckon by now I can set myself more interesting briefs than most lecturers - I know my own capabilities - it's more about communicating with other designers and putting a focus on experimentation, rather than knocking stuff out a few days a month over a pint and a few spliffs 'cos I felt guilty having tuesday night pints or watching too much TV!
I just want to experiment with my own stuff, as I don't get too much chance to go wild with my own projects at work.
I think the facilities are good, but the lecturers ain't great, but don't quote me on that.

I have another friend who studied in Amsterdam for 3 years. He rates it really high, but they've turned him into a dutch stylist, even his sense of humour is very dutch! If that's your thing it's the only place to go.
A lot of people rave about Central St. Martins in London, i'm sure you've heard about it!
If I was minted I'd move to new york and bribe myself into Coopers Union!
good Luck
