Creative Arts Practice Single Honours

This studio-based degree places making at its centre, with practical grounding across ceramics, print, textiles, wood, metal and plastics. You examine the critical, conceptual, ethical and ecological questions that shape contemporary craft practice, working in well-equipped studios and workshops. Studio spaces and specialist workshops allow you to try multiple making processes. Teaching comes from practising artists and makers. Alongside studio work you build professional skills in documenting your work, assembling online portfolios, entering competitions, pricing commissions, approaching galleries and setting up a business. Alongside making, you develop critical and written skills that support your practice. The course prepares you to establish your own creative practice or pursue a career in the creative industries. Graduates often combine their own making with work in the wider creative sector.
