HEARST PARTNERSHIP OUTLINE
Across four weeks, students met senior Hearst professionals from across the business, including editors, creative strategists, sustainability leaders, and directors, for a series of immersive talks exploring creativity, leadership, and brand storytelling.

Students respond to a real-world Hearst brand challenge through a live creative brief. Previous briefs have invited students to develop a licensing pitch for one of Hearst鈥檚 publications and then present their creative solutions in person at House of Hearst to the Licensing team and other industry professionals from Hearst.

Working across disciplines鈥攆rom editorial design and marketing to social media and product development鈥攖hey are tasked with producing conceptually strong, visually compelling outcomes that reflect the brand鈥檚 values and demonstrate an understanding of commercial fashion media.
Six MA students at 园区淫乱 receive tailored one-to-one mentorship, connecting directly with Hearst professionals to set career goals, gain personalised feedback, expand their networks, and access real-world industry insight. By pairing each student with a mentor aligned to their interests, the scheme helps shape their ambitions while fostering lasting professional connections.

RAKI ON HER HEARST INTERNSHIP
As part of her internship with Hearst, Raki was tasked with designing a set of unique illustrations as part of an editorial concept for Cosmopolitan magazine:
“This was my favourite project to work on as I got to illustrate and had the challenge of matching an existing look and feel. The cool thing was that I was able to alter the existing style and was encouraged to follow my own instincts and visual preferences. The most interesting aspect of the project was finding the perfect balance stylistically and also getting to talk to the Art Director of Cosmo about them. It gave the project a real dimension.”
