| Summary | As a development from directed study students in this course should demonstrate an ability to operate on a more autonomous basis, through selective appraisal of environmental contexts and lines of critical inquiry aligned with professional practice. This process is supported by staff who will guide students through the stages of professional activity, such as network building, funding applications and project delivery. This allows students to develop the organisational skills required to operate in the creative sector. It is expected that students place particular demands on themselves, to extend their experience and aspirations to develop individualised creative practice.
Aims:
To develop individual practice and professional, technical and organisational skills;
To promote a professional approach to manage, structure and resolve an innovative contribution;
Enable students to propose, justify and undertake an advanced personal project with clearly defined critical aims, objectives and methods.
Mode of delivery:
Individual mentoring, installation, project review, exhibition
