Summary

The Master of Visual Arts is an interdisciplinary research degree for creative professionals.

This postgraduate art and design degree is highly flexible and caters for visual arts graduates and students from a variety of other creative backgrounds. You can tailor your studies to suit your art practice and professional interests.
