Learning Outcomes

Graduates of the BFA (AQF Level 7) will be able to:

Define and articulate, to relevant audiences, a broad and coherent theoretical and technical knowledge about the diverse contexts (e.g. social, cultural and historical) that inform all aspects of art practice.

Demonstrate well-developed theoretical, technical and communication skills essential to art practice through:

Critically analysing ideas, artefacts and methods
Evaluating and applying the critical commentary of others, and
Synthesising formal, technical and conceptual knowledge via interpretation and adaption.

Exercise well-developed initiative and judgement in developing cognitive and technical skills, to manage contingencies with some independence, provide solutions to sometimes complex problems and deliver conceptually multi-layered, resolved art works.

Undertake self-directed, speculative inquiry in one or more disciplines to develop new, individual creative practice artefacts by adapting well-developed knowledge and skills in diverse contexts, and executing projects with unforeseen outcomes.

Develop a self-defined creative practice and/or inquiry that is autonomous and demonstrates knowledge of professional, scholarly, and/or social communities.
