Our students learn to balance ‘practice’ with ‘innovation’ in the creation of personal and individual artefacts that share a common sensitivity to the complex relationships that humans form for objects.

Studio work can be made with a wide range of materials, from precious or semi-precious metals and gemstones, to plastics, wood, paper, stone and textile. These materials are bound together through thoughtful and intense periods of studio-based practice underpinned by an ethos of experimentation, innovation and passion. 

We support a reflective understanding of the subject within the contexts of contemporary society and its wider industry - to this end the department embraces working with new technologies alongside traditional time-honoured techniques and processes. 

 The Jewellery and Silversmithing course is managed by a dedicated team of staff, both full-time and part-time, who are active in their own professional practice and all of whom have a high profile both nationally and internationally.
