Teaching
Throughout your course studio work is strongly supported and contextualised through the study of relevant history and theory. Contemporary attitudes and issues are discussed and developed through:
- lectures
- seminars and group critiques
- visiting lecturers
- exhibitions (including those at Dundee Contemporary Arts and the University's own Cooper Gallery)
- workshops
The majority of teaching takes place in the studios and is a combination of:
- one-to-one tutorials
- group critiques between students and studio staff
- joint critiques between students and studio staff and critical and contextual study staff
Assessment
Work is assessed at the end of each semester, while individual reviews offer you additional guidance.
