Central England is divided into two regional tourist boards   

East of England , Heart of England

East of England- East Anglia, North Folk (Norfolk)- South Folk (Suffolk)- Essex, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire

The East of England region is based around the ancient kingdom of East Anglia, which was originally made up of the North Folk (Norfolk) and the South Folk (Suffolk). These are now joined by Essex, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire and are easily recognised on the map as the bump on England's eastern side. The area is within easy reach of London and is still an important gateway to Britain from Europe as it has been since Roman times.Visit the East of England Tourist Board's website at: www.visiteastofengland.com  

Heart of England- Birmingham- Gloucestershire- Staffordshire- Derbyshire- Warwickshire- Nottinghamshire- Herefordshire- Lincolnshire- Northamptonshire

There is England and there is the Heart of England. This is the very heart of Britain, capturing the very essence of Englishness. Like the rest of England, it is charmingly individual, but the bonus is that the Heart of England is at the hub of Britain's road network, so exploring every last bit of it is made very easy! You don't have to fly into London because there is the international airport at Birmingham right in the centre of the region.

Take some time to visit Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, taking in the many honey-coloured villages and the regency of Cheltenham. The potteries of Staffordshire and dramatic landscape of Derbyshire and the Peak District to the north of the region are juxtaposed with Shakespeare's Stratford-on-Avon and the nearby lesser-known parts of Warwickshire. Lose yourself in the legends of Nottinghamshire and Robin Hood's Sherwood Forest. Explore the counties of Herefordshire and Shropshire along the beautiful borderlands of England and Wales sampling the myriad of excellent restaurants and locally produced food. Shop for antiques in Lincolnshire and visit the impressive Lincoln Cathedral whilst you're there. Sample some of the countries finest cheese and pork pies in Leicestershire, before visiting the tranquil beauty of Northamptonshire.

Northern England

It is  divided into four regional tourist boards:

Cumbria - the Lake District

North West England

Yorkshire

You'll find nowhere quite like it - either for a short break or a longer stay - and it will take many, many visits to really see it all.

BA(Hons) Information Illustration

Blackpool’s Information Illustration degree is generally recognised as the leading course within Europe, and has involved collaborations with British Aerospace, McLaren Cars and Channel 4 amongst others.” The only course of its kind in the UK, the degree programme continues to be recognised as Europe’s leading provider of information and technical illustrators. So what kind of person applies for the course? Essentially, those who are fascinated by how man-made objects work - from a Spitfire to a hairdryer. You’ll be challenged by the demands of accurate representation and be constantly seeking new ways to explain how things work visually.

 The course has its roots in traditional technical illustration and airbrush art, but with the development of computer technology and the revolution in digital communication today’s students are taught how to combine traditional skills in illustration with the latest digital technology to create innovative illustration and animation. Graduates gain employment in the publications, media or broadcast industries. This ranges from technical publications to television graphics and web distribution. Students in the second year have a paid three month professional placement at a variety of industrial and commercial studios.

During the course opportunities arise for students to make cultural visits at home and abroad. In the final year exhibitions in London, have helped showcase our talented students work and procure employment across the country. Students are encouraged to enter competitions and have had a great deal of success in Britain and abroad. 

BA(Hons) Scientific and Natural History Illustration

It is designed for any one  who has a passion for the natural world; with a love for drawing; who wishes to work in a variety  of contexts supported by a desire to communicate with clarity and individual identity; who wants a career in a specialist area of illustration.

This fascinating course is unique in the UK and would be hard to match in the rest of the world. It offers challenge, personal adventure and the chance to acquire skills and expertise that will

distinguish you as a person for the rest of your life.

It is also greatly relevant to industry, with a strong vocational bent. As a result, the course earns an excellent national and international reputation and high renown.

Graduates have gone on to work in publishing, conservation, museums, medical art and the design industry.   

BA(Hons) Wildlife Photography

The only degree course of its kind in Europe, this programme has two extraordinary benefits.

The first: its dedicated focus puts graduates at a huge advantage when looking for work in the field: specially trained candidates are rare. The second: its broad base gives students a wide scope of

opportunities, equipping you for a wide range of jobs within the photographic and visual communications sectors.

Natural history is a boundless subject and you’ll have full rein toexplore the aspects that fascinate you, whether it’s the ecosystem of a tropical rainforest or a British butterfly.Specific career paths are as freelance or employed photographers,perhaps with agencies. Documentary and scientific film-making offer good opportunities, as do picture libraries, in editing or commissioning. Teaching, management or post graduate study are further possibilities. Competition for places on the course is fierce, too. The result gives Blackpool a cosmopolitan take, with students from all over the world joining the course every year. Students agree it renders the course even more enjoyable – and makes it a realistic microcosm of the commercial world.

BA (Hons) Photography 

Here at Blackpool that’s exactly what we offer: an ideal balance between free expression and market demand. The course enjoys an enviable reputation at home and abroad, with most graduates gaining employment, or venturing into self-employment, soon after qualifying.

The broad base of the course not only enables the would-be photographer to acquire a wide range of skills and abilities,but to find the avenue best suited to his or her interests and career aspirations. Fashion, advertising, architectural, editorial and portrait  photography are all open to our graduates, and so too are the related fields of art direction, picture editing, picture research, photo-journalism and fine art photography.

 It’s not just a matter of trying different styles and developing ideas; photographers need transferable skills in analysis, problem solving, synthesis, communication and marketing to achieve success.
