Study Details: 1 year full-time, 2- 3 years part-time
Mobilise your art practice: from production to encounter. You’ll get to work in our on-campus studio spaces and project spaces, hosting public exhibitions and exploring new forms of public engagement. You will be supported to build meaningful professional relationships with local and global communities and audiences and encouraged to work on off-site projects.
This dynamic MA in Contemporary Arts Practice will equip you with transferable and industry-relevant skills, including end-to-end creative project management, enabling you to become resilient and independent as a practitioner.
The course is ideal for students with visual arts backgrounds, but also relevant to other arts-related disciplines. You’ll have scope to use a diverse range of materials, processes and approaches, and will benefit from working in a trans-disciplinary environment.
The entry requirements for the course are normally a 2:1 Honours degree in a subject related to art practice. Applicants who have a 2:2 Honours or with different qualifications who have relevant experiential learning will also be considered.
Students are supported to build career paths connecting their art practice with contemporary cultural contexts. The MA could lead to careers in social and environmental justice, public policy, public art, curatorial practices, art education, art writing, urban planning, landscape architecture, and other professional and creative practices.
We will support you to manage budgets and oversee creative projects, leading to possible work as a project manager, cultural manager or arts and engagement officer.
You may also decide to continue your studies by specialising in research through a PhD.
