COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Diploma of Visual Arts at Sydney Art School is suitable for Australian and international visual arts students who are looking to extend existing technical artistic skills.
The Diploma of Visual Arts course is accredited under the Australian Qualifications Framework and provides for a pathway into Australian universities. It is also listed on the Commonwalth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS).

Course Description
This qualification reflects the role of individuals who combine specialised technical, creative and conceptual skills to plan and realise a body of work in one or more art forms. Visual artists may work in their own practice, or in a wide range of contexts across the arts, government, community or commercial organisations. Practice at this level is underpinned by application of arts theory and history and the ability to critically analyse and synthesise information from a range of sources. Discourse around complex ideas is also required.
REQUIREMENTS
Individuals must provide evidence of their technical and organisational skills to conceptualise and create works in their selected medium.
Skills and knowledge may have been acquired through experience in creative practice or formal study.
