Draughtsperson and Model-maker, Emily Bates graduated from RWCMD in 2017 with an MA in Design for Performance.

‘The College’s Design for Performance Master’s course gave me many things I didn't realise I needed at the time. Only years later, do I fully appreciate the impact of what I learned. The course not only challenged how I expressed my conceptual ideas but also gave me the confidence to present them in a room full of people. Exchanging ideas with students from diverse backgrounds around the world was incredibly exciting and formative for me as a young student…’

Dylunydd a Gwneuthurwr Modelau, graddiodd Emily Bates o CBCDC yn 2017 ag MA mewn Cynllunio ar gyfer Perfformio.

‘Fe wnaeth cwrs Meistr Cynllunio ar gyfer Perfformio y Coleg roi llawer o bethau i mi nad o’n i’n sylweddoli mod i eu hangen ar y pryd. Mae wedi cymryd blynyddoedd i mi werthfawrogi effaith yr hyn y gwnes i ei ddysgu yn iawn. Roedd y cwrs yn herio’r ffordd ro’n i’n mynegi fy syniadau cysyniadol, a hefyd yn rhoi’r hyder i mi eu cyflwyno mewn ystafell yn llawn pobl. Roedd cyfnewid syniadau â myfyrwyr o gefndiroedd amrywiol, ac o bob cwr o’r byd, yn gyffrous iawn ac yn ddylanwad mawr arna i fel myfyrwraig ifanc…’
