Overview

The Ceramics and Glass BA (Hons) course from The University for the Creative Arts is forward-thinking and dynamic in its approach to materials, but it’s also built on a strong tradition of craft practice in the World Craft Town of Farnham – meaning you get the best of both worlds when it comes to creating your own masterpieces.

Facilities at UCA Farnham are world-class, so you’ll have everything you need to establish yourself and your craft identity with guidance from our team of expert staff – innovative practitioners in their own right – who bring extensive knowledge and experience.

Alongside making, you’ll explore the contextual background to your work, helping you gain a better understanding of the roles of ceramics and glass in history and wider society.

If working with clay or experimenting with glass is calling to you, start your journey at UCA and experience the possibilities for yourself.
