- The Bachelor of Arts in Fine Art Aberystwyth University is a full-time 3 years program.
- Studying at the School of Art, students will have access to an internationally renowned collection of art and artifacts. Their collection consists of some 20,000 prints, photographs, drawings, paintings and ceramics. They actively draw on those original works of art to build a practical knowledge of art history.
- The School of Art is a government-accredited art museum that runs its own galleries. There are only two such schools in the UK. This means a hands-on study of art in a museum environment. It gives the opportunity to engage creatively with art history by curating works from their collection as part of their degree scheme. For examples of a student-curated exhibition, visit their Museum and Galleries blog.
