"The traditional artist’s career resembles a patchwork of short-term contracts and projects, self-employment and freelancing.  There is growing recognition of the need to enhance graduates’ employability in order for them to find suitable jobs in an increasingly diverse and competitive labour market.

Equipping graduates with a broad range of skills and providing substantial career preparation is crucial in determining how quickly new Fine Art graduates are able to establish themselves and make a living from their practice."
