创造与成长之旅:
耀华学子探索英国顶尖艺术与设计大学
We are thrilled to share the incredible experiences of our students from Yew Wah Gubei Art and Design and Yew Wah Tongxiang, who recently embarked on the YCYW Careers and University Guidance Office (CUGO) excursion to our Knowle Hall campus in Somerset, England for Art and Design students. This 10-day tour was a transformative journey, designed to enrich their artistic skills and open doors to prestigious universities in the UK.
我们非常激动地与大家分享此次上海耀华古北校区(艺术与设计)学生和耀华桐乡校区学生的精彩旅程。学生们参加了由耀中耀华职业与升学辅导办公室(CUGO)组织的为期10天的英国萨默塞特文化中心艺术游学项目之旅。
A Creative Partnership with Glasgow School of Art
与格拉斯哥艺术学院的创意合作
Our students had the unique opportunity to work with esteemed professors from the Glasgow School of Art, QS Ranked 13 for Art and Design. Through an exclusive three-day workshop led by Professor Christine Novosel and Professor Lona Roberts, they delved into observation drawing, mixed media techniques, and mark-making. These new skills were then applied to their individual focus areas such as Fashion, Graphic Design, and Architecture, significantly enhancing their sketchbooks for their portfolios—a crucial component for UK Art and Design applications.
在此次游学之旅中,我们的学生有幸与来自格拉斯哥艺术学院 (QS艺术与设计全球排名第13位) 的著名大学教授一起学习。在由Christine Novosel教授和Lona Roberts教授主导的为期三天的独家工作坊中,学生们深入探索了观察性绘画、混合媒介技巧和痕迹制作,这些新技能随后被应用到他们个人的重点创作领域,例如时尚设计、视觉传达和建筑设计,并且大量丰富了他们作品集中Sketchbook的部分,这是学生申请英国大学艺术与设计类专业至关重要的材料之一。
Mastering the Art of Presentation
精进艺术“表达”与演讲力
Post-workshop, our students engaged in a two-day intensive session on personal statements and portfolio interview preparation. Guided by our dedicated CUGO team—Nick Strong, Division Head for UK and Europe, Jennifer Cheng, Head of CUGO YWIES Gubei, and Daisy Feng, CUGO Officer for YWIES Gubei—students polished their application statements, honed their writing skills, and practiced presenting their art portfolios with confidence.
工作坊结束后,我们的学生参与了为期两天的关于个人陈述撰写和作品集面试准备的强化课程。在我们敬业的CUGO团队——包括英国及欧洲地区职业及升学辅导办公室部门主管Nick Strong老师、耀华古北CUGO部门主任Jennifer Cheng老师以及耀华古北CUGO升学顾问Daisy Feng老师——的指导下,学生们打磨修缮了他们的个人申请陈述,提升了写作技能,并自信地练习展示了他们的艺术作品集。
Exploring University Life in the UK
探寻英国大学生活
The second week was packed with visits to several renowned UK universities, offering our students a glimpse into university life. At Bath Spa University, they explored workshop-based environments through Print Making and Ceramics. Cardiff Metropolitan University introduced them to Ceramic Glazing techniques. The Arts University of Bournemouth (AUB) provided insights into construction techniques and creative thinking, culminating in portfolio feedback and admissions interviews. We are proud to announce that three of our Y13 students received Pre-Admissions offers from AUB due to their exceptional portfolios and interviews.
充实且丰富的英国大学参观之旅填补了游学的第二周。学生们参观了多所知名英国学府,短暂体验了英国的大学生活。在巴斯斯巴大学,学生通过版画和陶瓷制作体验,感受了基于工作坊学习形式的大学设施环境。在卡迪夫城市大学,他们学习了陶瓷釉彩技术。伯恩茅斯艺术大学为学生提供了关于建筑技术和创意思维的见解,并进行了作品集反馈和入学面试。非常自豪的向大家宣布:鉴于学生们出色的作品集和突出的现场面试表现,我们的三位13年级学生已经收获了伯恩茅斯艺术大学的预录取通知书。
Discovering Opportunities in London

Tours of the Central Saint Martin’s Campus and London College of Communications were followed by portfolio improvement sessions with UAL professors, further preparing our students for admissions to this prestigious institution.
我们的旅程在伦敦继续,学生们来到伦敦大学金史密斯学院,该校位列QS艺术与设计全球排名第21位,在专业排名中媒体研究方向位列第16。在金史密斯,从虚拟现实VR开发到用户交互设计和界面设计,学生们探索了广泛的数字媒体项目。而此次行程的最后一站是QS艺术与设计全球排名第2位的伦敦艺术大学。在参观了中央圣马丁学院和伦敦传媒学院之后,学生们与来自伦艺的大学教授探讨个人作品集,改进与提升了作品的内容质量,进一步为申请这一所著名学府做好了准备。
