Course Description

Hone your skills and develop your identity as a designer in this highly-specialised Jewellery and Silversmithing master's course. This programme is designed for those fascinated by distinct materials, the objects they form, and their place upon the body. You will strengthen your design work through practice-based research, experimentation, and radical thinking. The course is available as a one-year full-time programme or a two-year part-time option. You will engage with contemporary briefs, interdisciplinary live projects, and professional partners to expand your practice. The institution provides access to excellent workshops, including fine metals, model making, and digital machinery, though students are expected to have access to their own or shared workshop space for intricate work. You will be supported by a core team of academic staff with strong industry links and visiting lecturers. The course culminates in a major project and exhibition, preparing you to define your unique place in the industry as a flexible and resilient designer.
