Course programme
In year one you will work on a flexible introductory core programme of visual studies, integrated individual and group projects and workshop practice in both 2D and 3D of which drawing is an integral part.
Contextual studies, information technology and professional practice also form a vital part of the course.
This will culminate in a final project which will be exhibited in the College.
Year 2
During your second year you will select a pathway in which to specialise from any of the units covered (Painting, sculpture, graphic design, illustration, 3D design, fashion and textiles, photography or animation) and produce a final major project.
Within this, research and development and a written statement of intentions are important elements.
Work is internally assessed at the end of each unit and externally moderated.
Life after Henley
Last year, students went on to various destinations including University of Brighton, University College Birmingham, University of Southampton, Cardiff Metropolitan and University of the Arts, London.
