Our BA (Hons) Jewellery and Silversmithing (with Integrated Foundation Year and Professional Practice Year) is a five year degree programme, including a foundation year to help develop your creativity before you embark on year one of a degree. Your fourth academic year would then include a year in industry placement.

Offering you the time and encouragement to learn how to design and make using a range of techniques, and a place within a tight-knit community of makers, our BA (Hons) Jewellery & Silversmithing degree course at UCA Farnham is ideal preparation for a professional life in the industry.

Our teaching team comprises active practitioners who are highly regarded in their fields, so you’ll have the best guides for your study.

On this workshop-based course you can expect to learn through making and be taught traditional technical skills that go hand-in-hand with material innovation and experimentation. You’ll also learn to present and promote your work, to communicate with confidence, and plan for future employment.
