why study at dundee? Jewellery and metal design aims to provide an intellectual and creative stimulus which encourages debate concerning aspects of perception and aesthetics; to create an awareness of the social and historical context of jewellery and metal design; and to encourage innovation and excellence.
We will encourage you to use your drawing skills to develop your ideas and will give you the confidence to expand your creative thoughts about jewellery, fashion and small products. The course will teach you about the history of jewellery and metal design while also making you aware of current design trends. You will use our workshops to learn about new materials and techniques and will develop your own unique personal working philosophy and style.
By the end of the course you will be able to confidently and creatively use a wide variety of materials, use workshops to design individual jewellery, fashion and small products and use the skills you have gained throughout the course to develop your own unique style.
You will also have the opportunity to take part in an overseas study trip and will be able to enter competitions and hopefully win awards. You will also showcase your work in a final year exhibition.
