School of Design, Craft & Visual Arts

Unrivalled workshop facilities, excellent industry contacts, and a diverse range of exciting courses makes the School of Design, Craft & Visual Arts one of the premiere locations to study in a range of creative disciplines.

 This stimulating environment exposes students to rich traditions in the creation, conservation and interpretation of cultural artefacts as well to the science and technologies of current and future production processes and the creative industries.

 Experimentation and confidence building practices lead to establishing the knowledge and skills required to move between traditional disciplines and new multimedia and internet technologies required by emerging and established creative industries.

All courses are under-pinned by a supportive programme of critical studies enabling students to further develop their awareness of the history, theory and context of the production and consumption of visual imagery.
