Contemporary Art Practice HND
An advanced course which develops theoretical, conceptual and practical creative competencies within the area of contemporary art practice. The HND framework offers students the opportunity to develop freelance, self-employed and professional working skills in the areas of community, public, environmental and site specific based artwork. In addition, the course equips students with exhibition and presentation skills and introduces them to the potential of new technologies such as digital media.
The HND is a professionally recognised qualification which allows students to enter the job market with the potential to gain employment in galleries, as freelance graphic designers and illustrators, working with design companies and agencies. In addition, the qualification allows students to progress onto higher level courses, including those already available within the UHI.
