With drawing skills placed firmly at the heart of the student experience, and an academic curriculum that includes methodology, criticism, and theoretical suppositions, you will combine your own personal artistic development with the study of art history and visual cultures. Upon successful completion of the Fine Art and Art History Degree you will have the skills and capabilities sought by employers and the foundation for a successful career.

This joint honours programme will enable you to develop your professional artistic practice under the tutelage of practising artists and curators, while gaining the critical and analytical skills required by art historians.

The School can offer you excellent facilities for the study of painting, the graphic arts, and photography, with studio facilities for painting, printmaking in intaglio, lithography, screen and relief printing, typography, black and white and colour photography, computer graphics, and most forms of reprographics.
