Fine Art PgCert

The PgCert in Fine Art offers an exciting opportunity for students to expand and deepen their knowledge and practice. You’ll experiment, work through personal investigations, and be encouraged to work in the medium/s most appropriate to your ideas.

You’ll take part in practical exploration, supervised independent learning, reflection and critical evaluation. You’ll be encouraged to share your knowledge, experience and perceptions. We promote intellectual enquiry, a high level of practical and technical ability, and the acquisition of a professional skill set.
