Fine Art BA (Hons)

Some Fine Art degrees in the UK ask you to make choices based on a single discipline or subject. At the University of Chichester, we recognise that not all students wish to be labelled so early in their education, and may want to learn a range of disciplines before becoming more specialised. Our programme of study is built around this principle, allowing students to specialise OR move between various disciplines over their period of study. Centred firmly within leading edge contemporary art, we encourage students to become confident practitioners through creative experimental approaches within single-discipline OR multi-disciplinary studio work.

The Contemporary Art World

It is vital that students are prepared for at least some of the challenges faced in the contemporary art world after they graduate. We have developed a programme in which level 3 students have to focus on aspects of professional practice and vocational experience. Recent students have worked on commissions, community arts projects, work placements with local galleries and museums, residencies in schools, and even creating their own virtual gallery. The experience is invaluable in terms of working to time and budgetary constraints dealing with the public.

Mature Students

Mature students are particularly made welcome at Chichester. We have many years experience of teaching mature people and they flourish here in this friendly and small university campus. For more information, please visit Mature Students
