Fine Arts

Artists are storytellers, change-makers, disruptors and creators who shape our culture and enrich our society.

Find your voice at one of the world’s top art schools

Art is brave. It’s about finding your unique voice and being fearless in your expression. Learning to create helps you discover who you are, your values, the ways you think and the ideas you have to contribute. The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report lists complex problem solving, critical thinking, creativity and ideation as top skills required for workers in 2025. Your studies in a Bachelor of Fine Arts will provide you with the platform to develop these core skills and shape your creative career. As an Elam graduate, you’ll be ready to adapt to change, to make an impact and to become a change-maker yourself. You will challenge the way we do things and propose a new way forward.

You can also study the Bachelor of Fine Arts alongside another discipline as part of a conjoint degree, which means you can take two undergraduate programmes at the same time. You can do a conjoint with Arts, Communication, Global Studies, Health Sciences, Music or Science.

What I love about art is being able to create, express and share. I’m constantly learning about myself, my environment and everything else.
