Course summary

BA (Hons) Fine Art is a studio-based course that provides you with the platform to confidently enter the professional world of the artist and arts professional. You will actively investigate universal approaches and practices in contemporary fine art that will test your knowledge, creativity and understanding. The course is taught by professional artists that are actively engaged in contemporary practice and will therefore encourage you to explore the broader social, political and community context to define a personal mode of study that will equip you to continue your development post-degree.The wide range of teaching approaches, facilities and opportunities will support you to acquire skills and varied methodologies that allow you to either specialise or engage with a pluralistic approach to exploring fine art. The diversity of content creates a distinctive group of students that engage with and question a diverse range of approaches to studio practice and externally engaged projects.You will also have the opportunity to develop your practice within an international context through the international exchange programme, national and international study trips and the acquisition of foreign language skills. There are opportunities to engage in the contemporary art world through study trips, exhibitions, student exchange programmes, visiting artists' lectures, workshops and gallery talks.Find out more about this course, staff and facilities and view student work at www.art.mmu.ac.uk/fineart
