Summary
This course will enable you to take your practice-based skills as a designer and maker to the next level as you establish your career. We will support you in developing your experience, using variety of materials to create high-quality objects that push boundaries, whilst working creatively and ethically.
Key course features: - Our teaching aims to engage you in key design principles and the working methods necessary to respond to and resolve design problems through research, conceptual thinking, design development and production appropriate to the discipline.

You will learn to demonstrate the synthesis between theory and practice in the ability to generate and produce creative ideas, concepts, design sheets, sketchbooks and presentations, individually or as part of a team in response to self-initiated activity or live client briefs.

You will learn through a variety of methods, including individual mentoring, group demonstrations, academic and critical writing, lectures and collaborative opportunities. We encourage students to work across materials to nurture their practice. This exploration will also enable you to be flexible with skills in an ever-changing industry.

A highlight of our calendar is Ceramic Wales, an annual event that takes place on campus and features exhibitions and demonstrations. This feeds into our curriculum, giving you project management experience and networking opportunities to work with professional artists.

Although it is not essential for students to have access to a workshop/studio outside of the university, it is ideal for students to establish this during their first year of professional practice to ensure that they are equipped once they have graduated.
