Course Overview

Fine Art has an enviable record for graduate employment. Many of our recent graduates have begun careers in lecturing, teaching, art therapy, gallery administration, and curating television, theatre, exhibition work, artist residencies, and community and public arts. Graduates also go on to run their own successful businesses and studio workshops.

The degree generates autonomy, creativity and lateral and critical thinking, and other highly desirable practical and intellectual transferable skills that genuinely prepare you for the world of work. The integrated live projects provide valuable experience working in the professional arena and create professional contacts with potential future employers.

A significant number of Hope graduates successfully progress to postgraduate courses each year, with recent Fine Art graduates going on to study at the Royal College of Art, Goldsmiths, and Chelsea School of Art
