Course Description

MA Ceramics is a challenging course that embraces the unique creative potential of clay and diversity of opportunities within ceramics.

Postgraduate Ceramics is rooted in ‘making’, the course offers a distinctive blend of practice and theory, with the theoretical components underpinning and informing the practical components of the course.
