BA Fashion Photography with Foundation

Our degree courses with Foundation year offer the opportunity to prepare you for advanced study before you progress on to a full honours degree at the University of Westminster. Whether you do not feel ready for degree-level study, don’t have the right qualifications, want to change your subject specialism or return to study after an absence from education, we aim to encourage a broad range of students to undertake our Foundation year.

Our foundation year in Art and Design is designed to provide you with an introduction to our range of subject areas, and to prepare you for the discipline of your choice. It begins in the first semester with the development of fundamental Art and Design skills, as well as practical exploration across all of the disciplines in our Art and Design foundation programme. In the second semester you are encouraged to specialise in your own discipline and are supported by our experienced staff team as you prepare your work for an end of foundation year public exhibition.

On successful completion of the Foundation year, you'll be able to move on to study for the Fashion Photography BA Honours degree over a further three years of study.
