Graduate Certificate in Advanced Creative Practice

A platform to a postgraduate qualification
This full time 15-week course offers potential postgraduate students the opportunity to refresh and refine their creative skills and conceptual thinking. It provides an excellent platform for students who have no recent experience of academic study or whose degree may not be directly relevant.

The course focuses on developing students' confidence and ability to meet the challenges of self initiated advanced creative practice and experimentation. Multi-disciplinary and collaborative in its approach, it provides practical and theoretical study allowing students to explore concepts and ideas to be developed at postgraduate level. Each of the course's four units provides 15 credits.

Two units focus on Advanced Practice where students develop their creative skills and understanding of how to bring independent, practice-based research skills to an advanced level. The remaining two units, Theoretical Frameworks and Personal and Professional Development, strengthen students' academic and research skills.

Students will leave this course with a clear vision of where their creative strengths lie as well as the ability to fully exploit and experiment with new and existing technologies - essential qualities to succeed at postgraduate level.
