Diploma in Fine Arts
Duration: 3 years
Mode: Full Time
Modules -
You will share some common modules across the Diplomas, as well as discipline-specific modules. The shared modules aim to provide you with a comprehensive grounding in the basic creative processes, art and design fundamentals, and technical and academic skills essential for your progression to Levels 2 and 3. They also allow for diagnostic and formative teaching in order to confirm that you have made the appropriate choice of study. The discipline-specific modules will introduce you to core knowledge and skills required as the first layer to the programme.
You will be taught technical and vocational skills with a directed approach, which encourage reflection and critical analysis in your practical works. This will provide you with substantial understanding and knowledge specific to the programme.
You will undertake self-devised/directed projects, which include cross-disciplinary and independent projects. These projects aim to encourage collaboration, polish your technical dexterity, and identify your area of interest, relevant methodologies and artistic proficiency. There is also a placement module to help you gain an in-depth understanding of the Fine Art industries and to apply your studio and academic understandings and achievements to the diverse expectations of a demanding industry. You will also interact with non-profit organisations or community interest-led projects as part of the Community Engagement component, where you will develop a greater sense of responsibility, merging work and personal ethics.
Learning methods
Attend lectures, critiques, workshops, seminars, tutorials and field trips. Engaging in studio work and group and solo projects will also become part of your student life. As part of industry-based learning, you will be involved in a live industry-related project or an industry placement.
