CONTEMPORARY CRAFT BA (HONS)

Contemporary Craft is an exciting major focused on hands-on design and making. We aim to build a supportive community where emerging makers and designers can reach their creative potential. This leads to specialised craft works, innovative projects, and new career paths.

Liverpool Hope University offers specialized facilities in metal, ceramics, textiles, and digital design. With dedicated tutoring and technical support, it is an inspiring place to study. You’ll explore materials and share ideas and goals. Masterclasses, lectures, and group seminars will explore key themes. These include the joy of making, materiality, sustainability, personal direction, collaboration, and craft identities.

We emphasize professional practice and employability. You'll work on live projects with support from university partners in Liverpool and the North West. You'll gain work experience and might even have a placement year.
