O que eu aprenderei?
Do you want a career within the broad disciplines of fine art, applied art and design? Are you an aspiring artist or designer, looking to develop your creative practice?If so, you should consider applying for the BA (Hons) Art and Design degree course.Throughout the programme, opportunities are provided to explore the relationship between making and thinking which reflect models in contemporary art and design practice. The integration of theory and practice is fundamental as it encourages the development of ideas by considering practice as research.Students’ emerging creative identities and concerns are supported, and responded to, through the exploration of public and socially engaged art practice, using ‘live’ briefs where students gain valuable professional experience.Through the programme’s direct connections to public art commissioners, arts organisations and individual practitioners students have access to a regular number of exclusive opportunities each year to develop their professional practice, we also organise and invite students to participate in foreign and UK study visits to engage with current exhibitions and events.The programme is delivered by a small dedicated staff team who are themselves practising artists. They have extensive experience of exhibiting their own work (nationally and internationally), curating and public and private commissioning. They also have strong connections to arts organisations and commissioning agencies as well as acting as consultants and external examiners on other undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Wales.
