Course programme

What will you study on this course? The degree programme consists of HE Certificate in Fine Art, HE Diploma in Fine Art and BA Fine Art. The Certificate in Fine Art is equivalent to the first year of a full time Degree and consists of three core modules and a choice of three elective modules. Structured teaching on the core course working within different subject areas progresses to a more focused study on three freestanding modules. The Diploma in Fine Art course is equivalent to the second year of a full time Degree and the course content is centred around more independent study interspersed with projects, seminars, visiting artists and exhibition visits. The course consists of four modules over two years culminating in the Diploma show and offering an exit award of the Diploma in Fine Art. The BA Fine Art consolidates the previous two courses by directly focusing on sustainable individual practice. Self directed study is complemented by visiting artists, seminars and individual tuition both within the studio and home environment. During the second year of the Degree one module concludes with the BA Fine Art exhibition.
