About the course

Through this studio-based program, students will deepen their relationship to materials that connect us to the craft of making. Students will apply new and traditional techniques as well as learn their cultural and historical significance. You will focus on making your own functional and expressive objects and learn the critical and entrepreneurial skills needed to succeed. You will be taught by top textile, jewellery and ceramics artists and designers, and develop your own portfolio and career path. Our studios are equipped with the traditional tools and new technology needed to prepare graduates to work as artists, designers and craftspeople. Program graduates span the world working in ceramics, jewellery, textiles, fashion, costume, interiors, museums and research. Choose to focus on textiles or jewellery/metalsmithing, or take courses from across the two subject areas with electives in ceramics, wearable form, wearable technology, furniture design, sustainability and more.
