Art and Design BA (Hons) Top-up Degree (Level 6) - Full-time
Course outline
If you already have an HND or foundation degree this course allows you top to a full BA (Hons) in Art and Design with just one further year of study. You will be able to develop your career in your chosen field, including fashion, fine art and design.
This course will suit students who wish to progress to 'hands-on' creative careers, including Graphic Design, Fashion and Fine Art.
It combines practical studio work with contextual and theoretical studies. Studio areas and specialist workshops are available for you to explore your ideas.
You will be guided through group seminars, individual tutorials and studio conversations with tutors and visitors.
The programme promotes an enquiring, creative and challenging approach towards your work. It encourages the belief that designers have independent thoughts, feelings, reaction and attitudes which they need to externalise and visualise within theoretical work and practical design practice.
Core modules include:
- Specialist studio practice
- Contemporary issues in design
- Practice-led research
- Advanced studio practice
