Teaching Organisation Students will work independently on self-initiated projects under the guidance of assigned lecturers or mentors.

Self-Directed Studies 1 is a unit of monitored studio or theoretical work in the students specialisation, namely graphic design, studio-based art or art history and theory. For the specialisations in graphic design or studio-based art the student will pursue research towards the production of a substantial body of work demonstrating an understanding and refinement of concepts central to their emerging, individual approach to practice. For the specialisation in art history and theory, students will, on a contractual basis, commence research for the long essay to be submitted at the conclusion of their course.
