Studying at UCA

Studying for a course at UCA will be completely different to how you are used to studying at school or college.

Your studies will be made up in the following ways:

Lectures

• Large groups
• Expected to take notes
• May be 1-3 hours long

Seminars

• Smaller groups (6-10 people)
• Discussion based - your own ideas and comments

Workshops

• Practical sessions
• Studio based

Educational visits

• Galleries and museums
• Overseas research trips
• Work placements

Studying for a degree at UCA also means you have access to the dedicated facilities and creative environment of a specialist university.
