The Advanced Diploma Program in Art and Design Practice is a post-graduate level program offered by the Srishti School of Art, Design and Technology. The program offers a range of awards and specializations that involve either a 1-year or a 2-year course of post-graduate study.
The Advanced Diploma Program in Art and Design Practice offers a route for further research and for pursuing doctoral studies. The program invites students, researchers and practitioners from different fields of practice to apply for the Academic Year starting in August, 2012.
The program is underpinned by the view that art and design practices are processes of critical and creative enquiry, providing valuable resources for research within and across existing and emerging disciplines, generating new meanings and methodologies to interpret and engage with a range of diverse and complex contexts, and holding the potential to impact issues of local, regional and global significance. The program adopts a heutagogical approach to learning and seeks to develop the capacities for critical enquiry and reflection as well as the acquisition of professional knowledge and expertise. It lays emphasis on the active creation of new knowledge through interdisciplinary explorations and collaborative inquiries.
