The
following information was taken directly from BathSpa
University's printed prospectus.
"The
course is based at Weston and Wiltshire Colleges, although
you will be classed as a Bath Spa student and will have
access to the University facilities.
There is a strong emphasis on the applied nature of art
and design, so that you will be well prepared to move
directly into employment or art practice. The vocational
focus of the course includes 'live' projects from the
creative industries and businesses, outside placements
in studios, galleries, museums, foundries and animation
companies, and work placements alongside art/design practitioners.
This is a modular course, with modules ranging from 'The
Creative Industries' to Practical Skills Development'
and 'Practical Studio Realisation'.
Taught sessions will include lectures, seminars, workshops,
demonstrations, tutorials and critiques. Work-based learning
alongside art practitioners will take place through a
range of external placements and will help prepare you
for employment in the creative industries.
You'll be assessed in a variety of ways, including 2D
and 3D finished artwork and preparation work (including
sketchbooks); essays; seminar presentations; seminar reports,
journals and case studies; and practice in the workplace
including diary entries, photographic records and/ or
sound recordings."
