Creative or visual arts degrees (1 Viewer)

Hey there. I'm hoping to do an arts course like fine arts or visual arts at uni. Anybody know if this uni is good for that?

Umm, as far as I know, Sydney has no fine arts degree. If you want to do something along the lines of that you can do fine arts at COFA (College of Fine Arts) which is part of UNSW.

Yes there is a
'fine arts' course at Sydney Uni's "Sydney College of the Arts" at Rozelle, apparently a fine, close knit campus in historical grounds by the water (sadly, never been there myself). COFA (UNSW), in paddington, is very hip, urbane, that sort of thing, and also has B. Design, and a B. Art Theory too.


Not really in a position to generalise about any uni, but I can say that you should also check out the National Art School if you're serious about fine arts (not that you shouldn't consider the SCA and COFA if you are). National Art School is different in a way, a traditional focus on technical/practical/drawing skills, but also makes art theory and history courses compulsory (now some of those, I've done, with the brilliant Jethro Lyne, but the rest of the staff are excellent too), but I'm guessing art history and theory is similarly offered at the SCA and cofa


Ahh, I miss art now
