It’s a new era. Choose a new way to study.

We know there's nothing quite like being on campus and soaking up the buzz of our creative community. But we also get that sometimes life has other plans. That's why we're thrilled to welcome you to study online with us.

Our live, real-time classes bring the energy and connection of the classroom straight to you, wherever you are. You'll join your instructors and classmates in an interactive, collaborative environment that keeps you engaged and on track, and helps you build those relationships that will serve you in your upcoming career.

Whether you're at home or halfway across the world, you can still be part of the Media Design School family.

Why Study Online?

Study and upskill from home

Media Design School prides itself on accessibility and online study is an important step to realising this goal. Study with us, regardless of your location, and give yourself the flexibility to juggle any competing priorities you might have or simply save some money by cutting out the small things that add up.

Coming to you - live!

We deliver our programmes synchronously, meaning our classes are streamed live to you in real time. You see the classes exactly as they should be in all their uncensored glory. Ask questions and get personal assistance from Academics, Tutors and Learning Facilitators, as if you were physically sitting in the class.

Same great student outcomes

There’s no reason for you to not expect to gain the same skills as your classmates on campus. Since the main difference between studying online and studying on-campus boils down to having someone sitting next to you, we do our best to make sure you get as close to the authentic experience as possible. Work hard and you'll count yourself amongst our esteemed alumni, no matter the path you take to get there.

There's just too many good things to say and I don't want to leave anything out. I love the structure of the online classes at MDS - they make me feel super involved, with live classes and real professionals that I can engage with on the spot for questions and feedback, you just can’t get anything like that anywhere else.”
