As your studies progress, you’ll explore art in its historical, theoretical, social and cultural contexts, and develop your guided independent studio practice through: - one-to-one tutorials, group seminars, lectures and visiting artist talks - exhibition opportunities - workshops - visits to museums and art galleries. **Facilities for BA Fine Art with Integrated Foundation** The Department of Art at the University of Reading has an extensive range of facilities and studios open to you 24 hours a day, seven days a week. - In our studio workshops you can focus on construction, printing and casting. - Explore photography in our darkrooms. - We also have digital workshops with facilities for film and video editing, imaging, sound, virtual reality and web building tools, and a dedicated audio-visual recording room. **Professional Placement** You’ll be encouraged to take advantage of placement opportunities that can develop your professional skills and prepare you for a range of careers.
