Wherever you are in the world, welcome to Central Saint Martins.

Central Saint Martins (CSM) welcomes students from all over the world to programmes in the arts, design, fashion, media, communication and performance.

Creative practice combines the ability to imagine new futures with the means to deliver them. As such, artists and designers are equipped to address our urgent global challenges – from tackling the climate and biodiversity emergencies to forging more equitable societies. Our students work with hope and uncertainty, using their compassion and vision to shape the world through creative action.

What we do is always connected to others. Our community goes beyond building, beyond disciplines and beyond borders. From local neighbours to global partners, Central Saint Martins collaborates with others to build knowledge and transform objects, systems and lives for the better. We understand that good things happen when people work together.

At Central Saint Martins, we believe that art, design and performance can generate real, productive change.

Want to study abroad at CSM?

Our Study Abroad programmes are designed for undergraduate-level students at other universities, who would like to study at Central Saint Martins (CSM) as part of their studies.

You can choose to study alongside UAL undergraduate students for a term or academic year on our Integrated Study Abroad programme, or with other study abroad students on our Semester Study Abroad programme. If a term or semester is not an option, UAL’s Summer Study Abroad programmes allow students to take 3, 6, or 8-week courses over the summer.
