Course Overview

The Doctorate in Fine Art (DFA) leads to employment outcomes by requiring students to engage with the art industry of galleries, critics, publications, and artist-run spaces outside of the university. The 60-credit taught module in year 1 includes seminars in art writing and publication, funding, and exhibiting. Many doctoral students are already in employment as academics, teachers, curators, or artists, and the DFA often leads to an extension of their professional roles or to new employment.
