Course programme

The course is divided into sections that enable you to gain credit towards your final qualification. Each level accounts for 120 credits and you need 360 credits to achieve a BA (Hons) degree.

The course offers an intensive period of study that proceeds from relatively directed projects to greater independent learning. This takes place in studios, workshops and through a programme of lectures, seminars and one to one tutorials. Critical, historical and theoretical studies permeate the course and written work is presented in the form of a journal.

Level 1 takes you through an induction programme you will be introduced to the range of available facilities. Emphasis is placed firstly on the acquisition of a vocabulary, and the methods you may utilise in approaching visual research. At later stages of the level you will be required to develop and sustain your own area of research.

Level 2 continues your personal development through experience of fine art practice. Emphasis is increasingly placed on your growing sense of awareness commensurate with critical self evaluation. An elective module at this level allows you to develop your work within print, drawing, sculpture or a specific theoretical module. During level two, in consultation with staff, students are expected to locate appropriate gallery space and to initiate and participate fully in gallery practice.

Level 3 is designed initially to consolidate and intensify individual directions of study. You are expected to demonstrate a higher level of creative independence supported by appropriate documentation. The level concludes with a degree exhibition which will demonstrate a level of study and research skills capable of sustaining your own practice on completion of the course.
