About this course

This course is devised for creative practitioners, recent art graduates and professionals who wish to examine, strengthen and deepen their practice within their own context. If you are a fine artist, designer, performer, creative writer, or have an interest in developing your practice for the creative industries, this course is for you.

MA Creative Practice encourages you to pursue an individual creative research interest for the duration of your study, allowing you to examine and strengthen your own practice and place it at the centre of your studies in a transdisciplinary learning context.

You will be encouraged to maintain contact with other creative practitioners and develop freelance or other creative career paths within a portfolio career. This course will also support and prepare you to develop ideas for application to a practice-based PhD.

The aim is to encourage a deeper conceptual and practical understanding of process, method, technique, tools and materiality through scholarship and critical engagement with theoretical creative practice contexts.
