College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities

We offer contemporary and relevant programmes across a range of sectors including Architecture, Design, Media, Journalism, Performing Arts, History, English, Business, Education, Law and Social Sciences.

Welcome

People are at the heart of what we do – from exploring the roots of society and how we interact as individuals, to developing socially responsible business leaders, inspiring artists and globally driven architects.

We use curiosity, critical thinking, and creative methodologies to challenge preconceptions and forge new understandings of who we were, who we are, and who we can be. We want to inspire you in your pursuit of success and support you to build your skills in preparation for your future.

Under the guidance of our expert team, we’ll give you opportunities to work with leading professionals and provide access to industry-standard facilities and dedicated learning spaces. Employability is key and working collaboratively with partner organisations and businesses we’ll encourage you to gain real life experience, and teach leadership that empowers you to be ambitious, to challenge, and to innovate.

Arts Foundation Year

Our Arts Foundation Year provides an alternative entry route into some of our creative degree-level programmes. As the first of a four-year learning journey, it suits students who are unsure of their creative direction, need time to adjust to degree-level study, or do not meet the standard entry requirements, opening up an exciting world of opportunities in a range of subjects.

No matter which course you choose, we aim to provide you with high-quality facilities and the latest equipment.
