Introduction
UWE Bristol’s MA Fine Art (Photography) builds on our celebrated reputation for postgraduate study in photography. Designed to develop your creative promise, this course is ideal if you want to push the potential of your own fine art photography practice.
Why study this course?
You will study our innovative curriculum alongside a purposefully small group of peers, uniquely designed to offer critical, collaborative and personal approaches to photography in contemporary cultural contexts. A combined focus on personal work, professional practice, and critical research will maximise your creative outputs, and contextualise photography as an artistic discipline.
You will gain knowledge and insights into contemporary arts practice and debates, taught by a diverse team of award-winning photographers and leading academics in the field. This, and the extensive range of creative resources available across our City Campus, will equip you to work at a professional level, plugging into the contemporary discourse of regional, national, and international communities.
Whether you’re a recently qualified arts or humanities graduate, or a well-established professional looking to develop yourself academically, this course offers all you need to push your practice to the next level.
Why UWE Bristol?
You’ll be perfectly placed studying in Bristol, a socially and politically progressive city, widely recognised as one of the most creatively influential settings in the UK. Here you’ll discover a range of galleries, photography studios and organisations, plus art projects involving students and graduates.
MA Fine Art (Photography) is based on Bristol's historic harbourside at Arnolfini. Situated above this internationally renowned centre for contemporary art you will be at the heart of Bristol's creative and cultural community, with access to UWE Bristol's City Campus and all it has to offer. Here, you’ll develop your skills and knowledge alongside like-minded creative talent.
Our students meet, share work with, and initiate long-lasting professional relationships with our influential partners in the creative industries.
Where can it take me?
You will graduate with a globally recognised qualification and have a broad range of options available to you regionally, as well as nationally and internationally. The course offers you the opportunity to develop your photography practice, and many of our graduates have continued into award-winning careers in the field.
