Study Details: MA: 1 year full-time, 2 years part-time
The MA Art in Science programme explores the rich and complex intersection of disciplines through meaningful collaboration between artists and scientists.
Art and science are often seen as two different entities with very separate ideas of what constitutes research. Increasingly, collaborations between artists and scientists are a feature of our cultural landscape. Traditionally this relationship has been perceived as art in the service of science, whereby artists use their skills to visually interpret or communicate complex scientific ideas, objects or forms. However, a hybrid form of research has emerged over the last 30 years where artists and scientists are interested in the creative possibilities and speculative futures of the intersection of these two cultures.
The MA Art in Science programme is an exciting opportunity for artists and scientists to explore the boundaries of art and science, and encourages students to consider, adopt and implement a range of interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary or transdisciplinary methods, to refine, extend, develop and critically reflect upon their own practice, enhancing the skills that they bring with them to the programme and those that they develop during their studies.
