The Fine Art MFA at the University for Creative Arts (UCA) is a critically focused postgraduate degree designed for artists seeking to deepen their practice and engage with contemporary theoretical debates. You will explore diverse forms of Fine Art, supported by current critical methodologies and specialist tools, to establish a conceptual framework for your work. This Masters degree offers a rigorous environment to test and clarify your motivations, investigate the interaction of research with making, and develop speculative approaches within a supportive academic community. It is ideal for those ready to advance their creative practice at a higher level.
Studied full-time on campus over two years, your experience will involve intensive self-directed study, culminating in a Final Major Project and an ambitious group exhibition in a London venue. You will refine your practice through advanced projects, develop a bespoke online profile, and engage with live briefs and industry professionals in the Professional Practice seminar series. You will also collaborate with peers to curate an interim show in London. You will graduate with advanced conceptual, theoretical, and technical capabilities, prepared for careers in the arts, academia, or research.
