A series of seminars, workshop inductions, research time and fi eld trips, will familiarise you with the College environment, the city of London, and the work of fellow students and staff. You will begin to develop your proposal, an ambitious and engaging project to sustain you throughout the pathway. We offer you time to implement both critical and practical skills. The development of your personal project is also a time in which to consider how your practice continues and the directions you may choose to take. Many students choose to participate in external ventures, competitions or exhibitions and form their own discussion groups.

During the final development and completion of your personal programme attention is given to personal focus, artistic direction and application. The final work is presented in the form of a public exhibition at the College.
