To be truly inspired you must learn to follow your heart

Is your head telling you to study a creative masters degree but your heart is steering you off course? Does it feel like your ambition is not reflected clearly in any of the creative postgraduate courses you look at? If this sounds familiar, our advice would be to follow your heart and go with a creative masters which fits flexibly with your personal aspirations. The University of Bolton’s MA (Specialist Title) via Creative Practice allows you to combine different creative disciplines together enabling you to follow the route that truly inspires you. Forge a deep web of knowledge which will act as the support for your original career path.

Some of the most groundbreaking ideas are born from a blend of creative practices which is why Bolton University offers this truly dynamic course. We’ll support your personal development and guide you to develop a unique body of work through a series of creative projects. You’ll work with passionate lecturers who will draw your innovative talents out of you and help you be more creative.

We believe that you should follow your heart but always take your brain with you. This is why we ensure that you leave with optimal business knowledge. You can expect to learn about what it takes to start up your own company which will allow you to grab the opportunities ahead with full confidence. You will learn about tax self-assessment, invoicing, intellectual property and risk assessments. Not only this, but at Bolton we will also prepare your creative practice for industry via funding applications, business plans, exhibitions, publication or small‐scale tours.

The University of Bolton has been named No.1 in the North West for student satisfaction for the past three years by the Complete University Guide (2021, 2020 & 2019). We are serious about your personal development and want you to thrive in the creative space for a lifetime after you leave us.
