Curation and Conservation Programs: Subject Intensive
Criticism, Communication & Curation: Arts and Design Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design | CSM

Semester Subject Intensive Programs (SIPs)
Study abroad students enrolled in an SIP program are fully integrated into the degree courses and study alongside UK degree seeking students. Since the study of art and design is different in Europe, students will find they are working more independently than at their home schools.  In addition, students are encouraged to take a hands-on, project oriented approach to learning. Professors offer guidance and support to visiting students in order to help them fit seamlessly into their program of choice. Students will earn 15 US credits per semester. Each subject-specific semester program at UAL is designed with the goal of maximizing the student experience; both in terms of providing a framework for academic inquiry, as well as offering each student the opportunity to work under the mentorship of leading industry professionals. Upon acceptance, students will be appropriately placed in either Year 1 or Year 2 of the program, depending on the student’s portfolio.
