You will also take part in visits to galleries and exhibitions, small and large group discussions, reasearch with an emphasis on the use of ICT, Art History seminars, slide video presentations and group projects. The qualification provides an ideal structure for those students who wish to pursue Art and Design at degree level or as a career.
