Stellenbosch Academy of Design and Photography Vision And Mission

 

Our Story, Mission & Vision

The Stellenbosch Academy of Design and Photography opened its doors in January 2003 in a quaint historic building on Dorp Street, however due to rapidly expanding application numbers soon had to relocate to Techno Park, the innovation hub of Stellenbosch. This has been our home ever since.

In just a short period of time, the Academy became one of the leading, tertiary creative institutions in South Africa winning numerous awards both nationally and internationally.

Our Academic team, led by Dr Ian Marley, are highly educated and experienced within their fields, offering the best instruction and inspiration this country has to offer.

Our graduate attributes are vital for graduates to acquire the most sought after jobs in the industry. We strive to develop individuals who will graduate as: Critical Thinkers: Creative Innovators: Reliable Researchers: Astute Strategists: Problem Solvers: Compelling Communicators: Responsible Citizens: and Effective Negotiators.
