The academic course is structured in three stages. In stage one, which covers the first two terms of year one, students are introduced to arrange of artistic media, and acquire the basic skills necessary for their practice by using 2D, 3D, photographic and computer methods. Stage two extends over the following four terms, and students continue to develop their skills and confidence within the various subject disciplines. At the same time (under the guidance of course tutors) activity is focused upon a sequence of four key themes which have been carefully chosen for their relevance to current art issues.
 
Art & Environment.
 
Art & Technology.
 
Art & Performance.
 
Art & Society.
 
 
At the start of stage three, which introduces the final year of the course, students are able
to make a guided choice of one of the previous key areas in which to further develop their own area of special interest. Throughout the course, studio practice will be informed and enhanced by art historical and theoretical elements as well as psychology and sociology running in tandem with specific stage emphases. Study of a language is also a mandatory element of this course. In 1995, students could chose between Italian and Spanish, both offered at beginners' level.
