课程特征 Course Features：
The Designer-Maker pathway benefits from interaction and collaboration with other subject areas within Visual Arts and this supports the development of research skills, critical and contextual discussion and debate and offers enhanced opportunities for networking and career development.
We offer our students many opportunities to attend industry events, visit special collections and network with the creative industry. Public exhibitions offer students the possibility of exploring the location of their work in a professional context. The skills and knowledge developed on this course can lead to careers as independent art and design practitioners, creative industry professionals, curators, freelance designers, workshop leaders and teachers. The course also sets out to equip you for the option of further study at doctorate level.
课程内容 Course Content ：
This pathway will allow you to develop a project from proposal to final exhibition. You will be asked to research the content, materials and technical skills, then produce written and practical work exploring your subject in relationship to contemporary practice. You should be well grounded in relevant aspects of design and be able to define and debate your study proposal.
This programme of work is supported, negotiated and supervised throughout the course by specialist academic staff in workshops, individual tutorials, seminars and lectures. Staff and student-led seminars promote debate and work-in-progress sessions allow for supportive critique.
Studies are complemented by lectures, seminars and workshops designed to help you develop wider contextual understanding, research skills and awareness of professional issues.
