The modules concentrate on the digital image and art practice with workshops on PhotoShop. There are further workshops in alternative processes and wood, metal and plastic fabrication. Students are given the opportunity to professionally produce and curate an exhibition of their work. Professional studies dealing with portfolio and presentation and a theoretical programme complement the practical projects. This is regarded as a professional year in which students undertake the production of two major bodies of work.
Students also research and produce a major written piece of text.
A continuous assessment scheme is used in which grades are awarded for each module. Successful completion of all appropriate modules within a year is a prerequisite for entry to the subsequent year. There are rewarding post-graduate educational and teaching posts for which this degree provides an excellent qualification.
