We are now the city of Plymouth’s first and only specialist arts university, allowing us to offer our students a dynamic and unique learning experience.<br/><br/>In May 2022 we were awarded the **Best Small or Specialist University** at the 2022 WhatUni Student Choice Awards coming top in a list of well-respected specialist UK universities, and in 2023 were awarded Silver in the same category, based on unbiased and honest reviews from students across the UK, in a category that highlights the quality of our provision as a specialist creative university.<br/><br/>Our MA Textile Design programme encourages an innovative and pioneering approach to surface pattern, construction and material practices. This programme will provide you with the environment, knowledge and skills with which to challenge and develop textiles through material-led investigations. With technical and critical support, you will find your own creative voice and narrative through the development of an authentic and individual project.<br/><br/>The programme addresses histories, technologies, contexts, material qualities and conceptual and narrative developments. Current issues around the discipline of craft are explored, such as the rise of digital tools and technologies, hybrid practices, sustainability and globalisation. You are encouraged to consider these issues through testing, making, re-making, evaluating and positioning your critically engaged practice. This programme encourages entrepreneurial creativity through self-initiated and independent approaches to making, whilst considering the subject at its extreme edges in relation to process, technique, application, potential customer use and audience.
