Course summary

Throughout the first two terms in LVI, students follow a theme to produce a portfolio of work based on a foundation of workshops in drawing and painting, textiles and fabric manipulation, printmaking, and sculpture. In the Summer Term of LVI and the Michaelmas Term of UVI, students will specialise in their area of interest to develop another project independently. This are of specialism might be any of those listed above, and you will work with your tutors, who will help you to identify your strengths. This project will also be the inspiration for the Personal Study, a written piece of approximately 3000 words. During this time, students will have a mock examination to prepare them for the external examination. In the Lent Term of UVI, students will be issued the Externally Set Assignment. This follows a similar format but will culminate in a 15 hour examination in the Summer Term of UVI.
