— it helps other students.
The Artist Designer Maker Foundation Degree places making at its centre. Students gain hands-on experience with materials ranging from metal, glass and ceramics to wood and textiles, and develop a creative style of their own from the start.
Digital methods sit alongside traditional craft, with fabrication, scanning and digital textile techniques available to learners. Each assignment builds professional habits such as problem solving, project management and meeting deadlines, while students are encouraged to work both independently and critically. Staff support learners through each project, from first concept to finished piece.
Regular self-reflection helps students identify personal strengths, recognise their transferable skills and see how those skills apply in future employment. The course prepares learners for careers in design, craft and making.
