The MA Art & Ecology is designed to offer you an understanding and experience of contemporary art practice engaged with ecology that has a breadth of outcomes and a variety of transferable skills.
Upon completion of the programme students will be equipped to work professionally in a range of circumstances including:
- Independent artists for whom ecology is the central concern of their practice
- Artists working independently or within collectives and/or organisations developing their own projects and for whom written funding applications, publicity and contextual statements require a key set of skills

- Curators and programmers in the field of art and ecology

Upon completion, MA Art & Ecology graduates should be able to continue with the critically informed practice they will have fostered at Goldsmiths and go on to contribute effectively to the development of art practice engaged with ecology in whichever cultural location they are situated.
