This course gives you a broad foundation across a wide range of disciplines in Art, Design and Media. You can then explore an area that interests you in much greater detail.

During Stage 1, you will explore broad concepts and assignments. This will allow you to decide which area of Art, design or Media you find the most interesting and the most comfortable. Tutorial support will help you find this direction. You will also engage with units devoted to research, ideas development, practical skills and evaluation.

You will be given an insight into the range of options available to you for Stage 2. The structure of this course offers seven ‘pathways’, one of which you will choose to study from mid-November.

The available pathways for Stage 2 are:

  • Graphic Design
  • 3D – Art, Craft and Design
  • Fashion
  • Costume and Textiles
  • Photography
  • Fine Art
  • Film and Animation
  • Illustration

Each ‘pathway’ has a specialist pathway leader, and support from visiting tutors and technical staff. During this time, you will engage with 3-4 week projects and begin to focus your portfolio towards your specialist area and make your Higher Education applications through UCAS. Finally, Stage 3 consists of self-initiated project, which is negotiated with your tutor and managed more independently. In this stage, you put into practice all of the skills that you have learned from the first two stages. The final outcomes are exhibited in the University’s gallery and studios.
