Glass remains a fantastic, intoxicating, magical medium as exciting in the 21st century as it was in the ancient world. The exploration of the unique properties of glass and how we engage with its extraordinary potential has been sustained at Edinburgh College of Art for a century.

Glass at Edinburgh College of Art embraces the full range of opportunities afforded by the material. From the illumination of cathedrals, the skin of high-tech buildings and shimmering installations within them, to exquisite crafted objects in the genres of glass art and design production.

Through an informed practical knowledge of materials and creative processes you will challenge conventions and apply your skills in a way that will continue to present new opportunities for you as an artist and designer.

Comprehensive workshop and studio facilities will enable you to experience a programme in the conception and production of glass, which is both practical and theoretical.
