玻璃是一种跨学科的媒介，艺术家，手工艺人和设计师都在使用。这项屡获殊荣的计划将玻璃作为一种设计工具进行开发，该设计鼓励与过程相关的原型设计和解析，同时鼓励流程主导的风险和游戏。这些课程涵盖当代设计问题，包括材料叙述，跨学科交叉和数字后实践以及工作室和基于客户的项目。您将专注于玻璃的重要性，通过过程与理论之间的整合关系探索新的界限，并鼓励您将自己置于玻璃学科之内和之外。该计划在苏格兰是独一无二的，而ECA是英国该学科中为数不多的卓越中心之一。全面的玻璃和石膏车间配有先进的数字制造实验室，木制品，金属制品和青
Glass is a medium that crosses a range of disciplines and is used by artists, craftspeople and designers alike. This award-winning programme explores glass as a design tool that encourages process-led risk and play, in parallel with the prototyping and resolution of designed objects. Courses cover contemporary design issues including material narratives, interdisciplinary crossover and post-digital practices, as well as studio and client-based projects. You will focus on the materiality of glass, explore new boundaries through the integrated relationship between process and theory, and be encouraged to position yourself within and beyond the disciplines of glass. This programme is unique in Scotland and ECA is one of the few centres of excellence in this discipline in the UK. Comprehensive glass and plaster workshops are complemented by state-of-the-art digital fabrication labs, woodwork, metalwork and bronze foundry, enabling you to experience the complete design journey from conception to the production of glass at the highest level. You will benefit from visiting professional practitioners and lecturers and will have the opportunity to participate in live projects and competitions. The curriculum combines programme and student-led activity, delivered through workshops, group seminars and individual tutorials. You will negotiate and develop a programme of study based on personal areas of practice-based research. We foster interdisciplinary collaboration with other departments creating a unique student experience and rich opportunities for learning.
