Mature students welcome.
All candidates will be interviewed and should bring a portfolio of recent artwork. At any time during the year when you have a portfolio prepared for interview. The history of art and design is studied alongside the practical elements of the course. Visits to galleries, lectures by visiting artists and projects, set by outside organisations are important elements of the course. As the course progresses students can specialise in fine art, graphic design, 3D design or textiles.
