Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Artist Designer: Maker

Makers are artists, designers, craftspeople, innovators, creatives, technologists and many other things besides. They work with intelligent hands and creative minds to create the objects that shape the world.

The BA Artist Designer Maker degree at Cardiff Met is a course that has making at its heart. Students will gain hands-on experience with materials from metals, glass and ceramics through to wood and textiles. They will learn to bridge the gap between age-old skills and the latest technology and create new and original ways of making for the ever- changing world.

Students will develop their own unique style and consider where their work sits within creative practice. They will learn from professional practicing artists, designers and makers, sharing in their passion and acquiring their skills.

By the time they graduate, students will be able to investigate and develop an idea all the way through to realisation - whether it’s a functioning product, decorative object, sculpture or installation. They'll be a maker - and the future will be in their hands.
