About this course

Why choose this course?

Our Fine Art undergraduate course gives you the chance to explore contemporary approaches to fine art across a range of disciplines, making use of our excellent resources for printmaking, sculpture, installation, photography, video and digital arts.

You will be part of a diverse group of students, each of whom bring their own unique experiences and interests to the course, making our supportive studio environment a great place to find your own artistic voice.

In our first-year modules you will gain experience and confidence with various media and concepts, and start to develop your own personal practice which you will then build upon over the next two years. Throughout your degree we will support your journey with tutorials, seminars, study visits and opportunities to participate in live projects, competitions and exhibitions. Other highlights include:

  • Access to comprehensive specialist resources with technical instruction and support.

  • Research into the broader context of contemporary art practices and theoretical debates.

  • Access to a new printmaking workshop at Waterside campus

  • International study trips, typically one European option and one long-haul destination.
