First of all, let's take a look at the advantages of studying abroad in art.
1. Strong artistic atmosphere
As a western country with rich historical and cultural resources and profound humanistic traditions, Britain is famous for its artistic atmosphere and exquisite cultural life. Students from all over the world are obsessed with British music, drama, movies, literature, fashion and bar culture.
For example: Edinburgh Art Festival in England.
Edinburgh Art Festival started at 1947, and it is one of the largest comprehensive art festivals in the world. From August to early September every year, famous song and dance art groups and individuals from Britain and all over the world are invited to perform in Edinburgh. The audience can not only witness the elegance of world famous artists, but also enjoy the most wonderful folk art performances of that year.
Turner Prize is a famous British modern art award established from 1984, which is used to commend British artists under 50 who have excellent exhibitions or works. This award is widely regarded as the most important and prestigious award in the field of visual arts in Europe. As an international creative arts center, Britain has gathered a large number of creative talents from all over the world to receive education and develop their careers here.
2. Flexible courses
There are many excellent colleges and universities in Britain offering various kinds of art and design courses, and students from all over the world are welcome to study in Britain. No matter what your current level is, you can always find a course that suits you. British art design courses are divided into three categories: vocational courses, undergraduate courses and postgraduate courses. You can start studying and choose different types of colleges according to your own level-from ordinary continuing education colleges to the unique Royal College of Art.
In addition, Britain also provides distance education and short-term courses for art and design majors. Many courses can be studied in these two ways, which can not only ensure the quality of learning but also save time.
There are also popular pre-university courses to fully prepare foreign high school graduates. As for the professional setting, it is more flexible. For example, only design majors have many choices: jewelry design, fashion design, interior design, product design, graphic design, practical design, fabric design and so on.
There are many art colleges.
Britain has the best art and design school in the world, and university of the arts london is the largest art school in Europe. She has 200,000 alumni all over the world, and has trained many world-renowned artists and designers with high-quality and innovative teaching, including john galliano, alexander mcqueen and stella mccartney.
4. university of the arts london
The academic system of vocational courses in art design is generally one or two years, and the types of diplomas awarded after completion are: national general vocational qualification diploma, vocational middle school advanced level examination diploma, national advanced degree certificate, etc. After graduation, students are mainly engaged in drama performances and backstage work in theaters, and they can also enter the fashion industry or engage in graphic design.
5. Royal Academy of Art
One of the most famous art and design schools in the world, and the only one that only has a postgraduate stage. Since 1853, the scale of the school has been expanded, and since 1896, the college has started to use its current name: the Royal Academy of Art is located in London. The course lecturers of the Royal College of Art are internationally renowned artists, practitioners and theorists. The Royal College of Art has a unique design environment for students and staff to learn and practice art, and has designed an art environment. The main courses offered by the school are ceramics and glass, fashionable women's clothing, interior design, game design, photography, sculpture and so on.
Then let's take a look at the advantages of studying abroad in the preparatory course.
1. There is great freedom in time, and students can make flexible choices and adjustments according to their own situation.
The length of preparatory courses in Britain ranges from three months to one year, and students can choose to adjust according to their own conditions.
From the university's point of view, the British master's preparatory course is used by universities to assess the academic and English abilities of international students. From the perspective of international students, international students can take advantage of the opportunity of studying for a master's degree to personally feel whether universities and courses are suitable for their study abroad needs. Generally speaking, if you can meet the admission criteria of the university and master's program you are applying for, British universities will accept your application and successfully enter the master's program.
2. Students with poor language skills can also study for a British master's degree.
For those students who have always had a poor foundation in English, it is a great pity to study in Britain because they have no time to exercise their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills during the intense master's study for only one year. If they don't have a good language foundation, it will also be a huge obstacle to master's study. In this regard, the British master's preparatory course has solved these problems well, which is conducive to a deeper understanding and study of British education and culture.
3. Provide a buffer period for China students.
As all the students know, since most of the master's courses in Britain are as long as 1 year, students not only have to face intense study but also constantly adapt to the local culture, so the British master's preparatory course is a good transition: because reading this preparatory course is conducive to obtaining a high-quality master's diploma. If you go to Britain to study for a master's degree, choosing a master's preparatory course can give students a buffer and adaptation period, and on the other hand, it can help students apply for a relatively better school and major, and students can choose according to their own specific conditions.
4. Study in british foundation and choose courses flexibly.
Preparatory courses provide preparatory courses for British universities, including majors such as law and medicine that overseas students cannot enter by other means. Generally speaking, mathematics and English are compulsory courses in the preparatory course, and the elective courses are very rich. Students can choose according to their undergraduate majors in the future. For example, if a student wants to study economics in the future, he can choose economics and social science as elective courses.
5. The curriculum of preparatory courses for studying in the UK is reasonable.
Preparatory course is a connecting course between basic education and higher education. Experts from the Preparatory Union pointed out that both basic education and higher education have a great span in knowledge structure and teaching methods in both domestic and western education systems. Even in China, our freshmen are generally uncomfortable with university teaching and life, and even a little at a loss.
Finally, let's look at the benefits of studying abroad.
