The Arts Faculty is delighted to welcome you to our Arts homepage where you can keep up to date of the many new developments in our faculty and find out which course is suitable for you.

Our Arts programmes currently include degree and masters level programmes in Psychotherapy, and diplomas in the Arts, Psychology and Communications.

Our Arts Faculty offers a broad range of short evening diploma programmes in research and communication skills, the arts and design, psychology and much more as well as degree programmes at undergraduate and post-graduate level. We uniquely combine our enthusiasm for the creativity of the humanistic traditions of the arts with the practical focus of the professions. We have new offerings in Genealogy and a Higher Diploma in Psychotherapy as well as our ever-popular programmes in Fashion Design and Creative Writing, amongst many others.

These courses are designed for anyone who wishes to expand their understanding of the human condition, whether this is prompted by personal interactions or the dynamic of their workplace. They are also suited to those who are simply curious about these increasingly important and popular areas of endeavour. Whatever your reasons for study, you will find something here to inform your interest.

These programmes are aimed at a general, non technical, student-group who have a particular skill-challenge arising in the workplace or a more general, personal, purpose in engaging with the chosen subject. We employ a broad range of teaching technologies, ranging from the traditional lecture-session to Power Point, Film, Case Studies, etc. We combine the best subject coverage with the most appropriate mix of teaching methodologies.

I am certain that these courses will engage your interest and curiosity and allow you a real-life experience of the topics covered. Make sure that you enjoy whatever you choose.
