Teaching and assessment for Jewellery & Metal Design BDes (Hons)

Teaching
We will teach you in a dynamic open studio environment. This means that there is plenty of social interaction, as well as peer and group learning.
You will also learn through a combination of workshops, lectures, and individual projects.
Assessment
We review your project work at the end of each module, and you will undergo a formal assessment process at the end of each academic year. We will give written feedback on these occasions, but we encourage open discussion with tutors and peers throughout the year.
The contextual elements of the course are assessed through written assignments.
