The HNC/HND in Fine Art is designed for students who are passionate about Art
& Design and want to develop their own creative practice at a higher level.
This course will help to build the skills you’ve already developed and give you
the opportunity to explore a wide range of creative practices in order to refine
and focus your own specialist pathway.
The course aims to prepare you fully for developing your own practice by
incorporating contextual awareness alongside professional and
employment-focussed skills.
Through a range of projects involving investigation, research and
communication skills, you will examine historical and contemporary aspects of
Art and Design in order to analyse and prepare research information for written
and seminar presentations.
You will explore a range of artistic skills which will develop into more
personal techniques as you progress into your chosen area of specialism.

including:
- Your own dedicated studio space
- Print workshop

- 3D workshop
- Fully-equipped photography studio including traditional darkroom
Regular visits to galleries, museums and exhibitions will help to consolidate
your understanding of art appreciation and inform your own
work.
