About Postgraduate Art

One of the major categories of academic activity, encompassing practices such as music, theatre, literature, architecture, cinema, painting and sculpting. These disciplines require dedication and skill to master, and lead to a wide range of exciting and rewarding careers.

Postgraduate students of the arts may pursue specialised training in their chosen art, or instead focus on the management, business policy of associated industries. Graduates of the arts can also apply their skills and competencies to a huge number of professional industries.

There are nearly 5,000 postgraduate programmes in the arts, representing a huge range of choice for students.

What to expect

In general, you will usually need to have an undergraduate degree in a relevant field such as fine arts, graphic design, or art history but this does vary so it’s worth doing your own research.
Some common topics that might be covered include painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking, photography, video, installation, performance, digital media, art theory and art history for example.

A postgraduate degree in art can help you develop your skills and knowledge in your chosen area of study, build your portfolio, network with other artists, curators, and art professionals, and advance your career in the art world. It can open new job opportunities, such as teaching positions, museum or gallery work, or freelance work or help you gain recognition and establish yourself as a professional artist.
