Studying a Bachelor of Creative Arts - Visual Arts at UOW will allow you to explore diverse materials, processes and practices in an intensive, hands-on environment drawing on a range of studio practices from the established to the emerging, the analogue and the digital, from 2D to object and time-based works.

A Bachelor of Creative Arts at UOW encourages you to immerse yourself creatively, critically and practically. The Creative Industries are one of the fastest growing, most dynamic sectors in the world.
The Visual Arts major equips you with a sound knowledge of contemporary art practices and art history and theory within Australia and internationally. It also offers you the opportunity to take minors and electives that broaden your career opportunities such as, for instance, Creative Writing, Media Arts, Technical Theatre, Music Production, Photography, English Literature or languages.

Visual Arts is taught by academics who are also practising artists and scholars, and who work with you to develop your creative and critical abilities. You will work towards a major exhibition by the end of your degree, and are encouraged to participate in Student Initiated Projects (SIPS).
