About the course
If you have at least three years professional or industry experience, you are able to enter this programme without a degree. A PGCertFA offers a flexible point of entry into postgraduate study in Fine Arts.

You will study in a group that matches your particular media focus, led by a senior Fine Arts staff member. The PGCertFA is intended to complement and extend your creative skills in a way that's relevant to teachers, artists, designers and civic creative specialists. Upon completion of this certificate, your courses can contribute towards a Postgraduate Diploma in Fine Arts, which can then be completed with a further semester of study.
