Fine Art BA Honours in Middlesex University, UK

Fine Art BA Honours in Middlesex University

Our fine art course welcomes the subject as an open discipline. That’s why your time studying with us will be a varied combination of studio practices, theory, critical involvement with culture, society, and artistic practices. We ensure that in addition to developing your critical and creative skills, you graduate with a host of transferable skills that are highly sought after by employers.

Our facilities and the expertise of our staff give you the freedom to explore different types of arts, following your interests and shaping the path of your degree. After the first year, you’ll be able to choose one of our distinct pathways: BA Fine Art, BA Fine Art Social Practice, BA Fine Art Multimedia Practice, BA Fine Art Critical Practice. This will give you the opportunity to specialise in a subject area that interests you most.

Throughout your time with us you’ll be taught by practising artists who’re involved in research and exhibit and sell their work globally, working across a diverse range of media like painting, film, photography, and more. Our north London campus location also puts you in the ideal spot to explore all the cultural happenings the city has to offer including the iconic Tate Modern and The National Gallery.

You’ll also get your own dedicated space within our industry-standard art studios for the duration of your studies.

Fine arts courses open a lot of different career doors. You’ll gain creative and critical abilities to start you on a path to becoming a professional artist or lead to other jobs, thanks to the transferable skills gained. Many of our graduates have found success working as curators, art therapists, researchers, writers, photographers, and many more.

During your studies, you’ll participate in a number of exhibitions to help develop your practice as an artist, starting from the second year. Not only does this increase your exposure to industry professionals who attend the exhibitions but also to build your skills in curation, self-promotion, and networking. The final year of your degree will be about consolidating and refining your art style and practice, helping to take to a professional level. You’ll exhibit your final year work at our Degree Show in central London.

Your time studying will be made up of studio practice, seminars, collaborative group work, gallery visits, and lectures. We also give you the option to undergo a nine-week work placement in a community setting, culminating in a project based on your experience.
