This accredited course prepares students for the study of art and design at degree level. Students gain an understanding of visual communication, three-dimensional design, fashion and fine art. Students will explore a range of art forms, media and techniques, and begin to develop their own creative style.
Students will be taught by a broad range of tutors who all work within the creative industry. These will engage students in a critical investigation of their work, progression aims and ambitions. Students will take part in regular research and drawing trips; studio, gallery and museum visits to London also form part of the course.
Students will use the excellent resources at Kingston School of Art's Knights Park campus, working on joint projects with degree students and live briefs whenever possible. They'll work in small groups of students, with regular one-to-one guidance from tutors and industry professionals. The Foundation Diploma in Art, Design & Media Practice will help students choose the degree course that best suits them. Students progress to study architecture, fine art, graphic design, illustration animation, fashion, product and furniture design and interior design.
