Course Overview

Offered by Arts University Bournemouth, the MA Fine Art provides a comprehensive postgraduate education in creative arts and design. Based in Poole, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 1-year full-time and part-time structure. MA Fine Art is an opportunity to look at the familiar with a fresh, perhaps oblique perspective in order to explore how “detour” permits “access” (Jullien 2004) to more subtle yet more complex interpretations. What constitutes a meaningful and useful research methodology in one culture may be considered unknown, unnecessary or redundant in another. These differences are at the very fabric of the Fine Art course; establishing deliberate cross-cultural dialogues with students from International and UK backgrounds and providing a vehicle for highlighting differences in working practices a... International tuition fees are £19,975 per year, home/UK fees are £9,000 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 86% student satisfaction rating, a 81% continuation rate, and 77% of graduates in employment or further study.
