You will be able to enjoy rich and diverse studio experiences, developing and exploring your capabilities and potential as an artist, while immersed in an atmosphere that nurtures and inspires creativity.

Southern Cross offers purpose-built studios which provide students with the opportunity to use a wide range of media, including painting, printmaking, ceramics and sculpture, digital arts and design, and drawing.

They can also study for a session at universities overseas including the prestigious Pratt Institute in New York, the University of Hertfordshire in England, Universitat de Barcelona in Spain, the University of Massachusetts in the USA, and Kansai Gaidai University in Japan.

Major Areas of Study

In the second and third year, students select from a range of creative and media arts units and/or units from across the University to complement their areas of interest.

Assessment methods

Units in visual arts studio studies, digital art, and design, photography and drawing are assessed by studio production work, artist’s journal, portfolio, and e-portfolio. Generally, approximately 70 percent of the final grade is based on the studio production work. During study sessions, there are ongoing individual and group critique opportunities for feedback on students’ progress. Art theory units are generally assessed through research papers, group presentations, and take-home exams.
