Overview

The Creative Practice course from the Atlantic Technological University will support imaginative, experimental and interdisciplinary enquiry through a range of media and approaches.

Students will choose one of four strands in which to base their study

Contemporary art studio practice
Digital cultures
Film and lens based media
Socially engaged practice

The course is structured so as to balance general and specific demands of various practices. Students will be encouraged to work collaboratively as well as be independent, self-directed critical thinkers. The emphasis of the course is on the student completing a large practice-based project. This culminates with the production of a final exhibition, film screening or project presentation with a thesis demonstrating appropriate critical contextualization of the practice based work.

Job Opportunities

Targeted areas of employment for graduates of this programme lie within the extensive range of creative networks and cultural infrastructure of the city, region and beyond.Employment opportunities include roles as self-employed artists, involvement in socially engaged and public art projects, arts administration, curation, filmmaking, as well as positions for technicians and designers.
