Programme profile

Tis programme is offered at Willem de Kooning Academy, the only art academy in the Netherlands that offers a major in Advertising.

WDKDA students, tutors and alumni regularly hit the limelight by winning international awards and nominations. You will learn to become an all-round advertising or conceptual creative, the linchpin between interdisciplinary creatives and clients. You have a strong vision, passion and drive, and are always on the ball with the latest news, art, brands, and trends. You have a flair for communication and media strategies and a knowledge of creative technical possibilities.

Programme content

You will learn to explore and analyse complex issues before developing and thinking through strategic creative concepts. It doesn't matter where, how or in which medium an idea is expressed; you have to start with a good one!

You will be working on projects in which you learn to position yourself and to influence those around you. You will determine the professional field in which you will graduate by completing an internship at a well-known communication agency or brand in the Netherlands or abroad.

You will combine a strong conceptual vision with drive and passion. You will have excellent communication and presentation skills. You will be ready to take on hefty challenges and be willing to work long hours. You will be a spider at the centre of the web: a team player who connects interdisciplinary creatives and clients.

Willem de Kooning Academy encourages you to take part in national and international award shows, such as Jonge Honden, the Spin Awards Young Talent award, hackathons, the Cannes Young Lion Competition, Young Guns, and the One Show.
