This studio-based MA Fine Art course allows you to develop your creative potential in a cross-disciplinary environment, using specialist equipment and drawing on the expertise of practising artists and skilled technicians at our Locksbrook campus.

You’ll identify your individual position as an artist, develop the appropriate technical skills and learn how to promote and exhibit your work professionally.

Key to the Fine Art Master’s at Bath Spa is the chance to specialise in your chosen discipline while learning alongside fellow students across all MA Fine Art and MA Design pathways. You’ll also engage with industry leaders, galleries, museums, curators, artists and businesses, ready for the next step in your professional or academic career.
