英国留学艺术专业的真相（推荐10篇）
根据多年培养学生的经验和学生就业情况来看，出国留学的重点还是要放在知识的学习和能力的培养上面，单纯依靠学历作为敲门砖的时代已然一去不复返。
2、艺术留学更重视院校业内专业排名。
学生毕业后主要在专业领域内工作，留学要重视大学排名，更要重视专业的排名。不同的大学在专业建设方面各有侧重，就业时，用人单位主要考虑的是专业排名或知名度。
3、艺术留学宽进严出，并不比国内容易。
学生们经常受到误导，认为国外的学校都是宽进严出，实际上，这是最常见的一种误读。
比较好的院校是严进严出的。留学时，报考国外的知名艺术院校，可能会比报考国内的名校付出更多。真正的区别在于，艺术留学所需要的作品集培训，并非像国内教学那样强调记忆和枯燥重复的技巧训练，而是比较灵活，具有启发性。
4、艺术出国留学的语言成绩是其次的，最重要的是作品集。
对于艺术留学生而言，语言成绩的要求往往低于普通文理留学生。
因此，更具有决定性作用的是艺术作品集。语言成绩是硬性规定，达到语言标准之后，能否申请到更好的艺术院校，取决于艺术作品集的水准。
5、作品集是一个思维过程的展现，不是应试的工具。
艺术作品集要呈现出最好的基本功和最佳的作品效果是中国的一种应试思维，重视结果、重视被灌输的知识与技能。
艺术作品集呈现的应该是对创作方法论的熟练掌握和创意萌发、思考、成熟、完成的整体过程。基本功和作品效果不是考察的重点。考察的重点在于创意思维和创新方法的掌握。这也是很多基本功比较弱的学生比作品效果非常棒的学生，申请到更好学校的原因所在。
6、越好的艺术院校，越不给奖学金。
国外艺术院校很难获得奖学金，能否获得奖学金与学校的属性有密切的关系，与成绩突出与否关联度不紧密。具体来说，公立院校不收学费，只收很少的注册费，因此基本很难拿到奖学金，私立院校收费较高，一般会对成绩不是特别差的学生，给予一定的奖学金，作为鼓励。
即使拿了奖学金，学费仍然比较高。相对而言，越好的艺术院校，越不给奖学金。因此，艺术留学尽可能不考虑奖学金问题。拿到奖学金也不意味着学生的水平特别高，主要取决于所报考学校的制度和属性。
7、艺术留学BA、BFA、MFA、MA学位进阶，能力并不一定进阶，与职位规划相关。
博士则指有志于从事科研工作，需要理论方面继续深造的学生。如果是进入公司，硕士和博士并不一定比学士更具有优势。另外硕士也分为不同的类型，MFA、MA侧重各有不同，学士学位也分为BA、BFA等类型，不能一概而论，难考程度也不同。不能认为自己在中国已本科毕业，就必须去国外读硕士，还是根据具体的就业理想来选择攻读的学位。
8、在国内没有扎实的基础，艺术留学读完预科也不能被录取，国外艺术院校的预科类不一定能保证学生的录取。
有些很多艺术院校的预科教学比较认真，升学率较好。艺术名校所设置的预科也是需要报考的，被预科录取后，还需要经过学习后再经过考试才能进入名校就读。
当然，在国内学习的水平越高，在国外就读预科成绩上升的越快，也越容易被录取。如果基础薄弱就去报考，不仅报考预科可能失败，如果在国内没有扎实的基础，很可能即使是在国外读完预科后，也可能不被录取。
因此，首先要甄别哪些学校是需要读预科的，哪些不需要读预科。其次，一些超级难考的名校先去读预科也是非常明智的选择，但要在国内先打好基础。
9、艺术留学与艺术职业形象有出入，选择不能唯兴趣至上。
案发“顺天轮”
1934年6月17日22时许, 英国太古洋行商船“顺天轮”首航沪津线, 由津返沪。驶离大沽口180里左右海域时, 微风细浪, 船稳客宁。旅客中有的倒头酣睡;有的玩纸牌、下象棋;有的凑在一块海阔天空聊大天, 消磨时光……
突然, 一声呼啸, 静寂的海面上更显得尖利刺耳, 令人毛骨悚然。接着, 枪声、叫骂声、奔跑声乱成一片, 各船舱变魔术似的站出形形色色的持枪汉子。他们把惊慌失措的旅客、船员押至一个大舱, 由持枪者严密看守, 不准叫喊, 不准随意行动, 将船长、无线电生、机械师锁在吸烟室, 将女人与儿童软禁于二等餐厅。那些黄发蓝眼的西洋人和留着仁丹胡的东洋人也都被赶到一块, 叽哩哇啦地互相询问:“这魔鬼一样的人物要干什么?”“上帝!他们是什么人?”惊魂不定的旅客被这意想不到的场面搞得蒙头转向、六神无主。
“顺天轮”刹那间易主他人, 一切来的都是那么突然、缜密, 让人丝毫没有反击的机会。显而易见, 这伙人是蓄谋已久, 因而计划周密而又有序。得手后, 他们对船员及旅客自报家门:“我们是刘珍年部, 不用说大家也知道, 干的是海上偷运禁品的行当, 过的是溅血撕肉、虎口夺饭的生活。因当局增派舰船沿海严查缉私, 以致断了财路, 失去生路, 万般无奈劫轮报复, 一旦与缉私船‘海兴’号相遇, 必用‘顺天轮’撞他们。他奶奶的, 叫爷们活得不痛快, 爷们也叫他们过得不安稳!大不了一同葬身渤海喂鱼虾。”一听到这话, 满船人都惊得目瞪口呆。
“顺天轮”船长等所有职员面对黑洞洞的枪口和横眉立目的歹徒, 真可谓:“秀才遇上兵, 有理说不清!”他们一筹莫展, 自叹命短运厄, 回大不列颠老家是无望了, 只好乖乖地服从劫匪的摆布。这就是震惊中外的“顺天轮”事件。此事酿成国际外交事件, 朝野人士、国内海外无不分外关注。
18日17时许, 众匪又分数批将大部分旅客及部分得力船员用渔船接走, 在神仙沟以南茫茫无际的苇荡中弃船登陆。百十号人一扎进葳葳蕤蕤的苇荡、柽柳林深处, 犹如针掉大海、鸟进瀚林, 纵是请来神仙, 也休想寻出半点蛛丝马迹。
众匪挟人质消匿得无影无踪之后, “顺天轮”也搁浅在神仙沟以南的烂泥之中了。任你开足马力, “顺天轮”好像老牛掉进枯井中, 有力使不上, 忙拍电向各方呼救。驻烟台的美舰“泊浦”、“比德”与驻威海的“卫赤”、“瓦特”两艘英舰接讯后, 即速驶往援救。八小时后, 涨潮后脱离险境的“顺天轮”与英舰相遇, 并由其护航南下。19日晨, “顺天轮”终于抵达烟台港。该轮遂将被劫经过详报英国政府和中国京、津、沪、南京各地, 立刻震惊了中外。
劫案起因
参加劫轮的是久据黄河三角洲的惯匪, 为首的是吴德胜、任富贵、傅瑞伍及傅瑞伍的小老婆薛氏。薛氏人送外号“黑牡丹”。此妇水性杨花又足智多谋, 胆大心狠却又料事过人, 是众匪不可缺少的智囊人物。劫案的起因还须从1930年说起。
1930年, 国民党政府因忙于调兵遣将在闽西剿共, 放松了对北方各省的控制。国民党二级陆军上将、山东省政府主席韩复榘瞅准了这一良机, 认为这是他在山东巩固和扩大自己地盘的好时候, 便派国民党军二十师五十九旅去黄河三角洲驻防, 名曰驻防, 实则是想控制这块风水宝地。因为这里有上千万亩新淤良田, 将此淌金流银的聚宝盆握于掌中, 于政于权于财可谓一石三鸟。
令韩复榘挠头的是, 那地方土匪多如牛毛, 三五十人立一竿子就可称团长、旅长, 百八十号人啸聚苇荡便称司令, 他们中以吴德胜为首的县警备队和海陆两栖盗匪徐银奎 (徐三) 最为猖獗。他们打家劫舍, 绑票、下黑帖子, 为所欲为。更令人头痛的是, 他们明暗难分, 水陆两通, 陆上风紧, 便放舟海上, 横行无忌, 堪称一霸。
国民党军二十师五十九旅旅长赵心德也不是省油的灯, 他图财贪色, 心狠手辣, 人送外号“风流司令”。土匪徐三见赵心德大兵压境, 好汉不吃眼前亏, 他通过生死之交的把兄把弟投门子、拉关系, 终于攀上了赵心德这棵大树。徐三不断暗派心腹将银元和金条送往赵公馆, 赵心德一高兴, 封徐三为“沾棣渔业联合会”会长。徐三在沾化县下洼设局建卡, 一边海上派捐, 陆上增税, 绞尽脑汁敛钱, 一边走私日货, 牟取暴利。赵心德则不费吹灰之力, 等着坐地分赃。与徐三交往深厚的另一个匪首吴德胜及他的部下任富贵、傅瑞伍等人, 更是为虎作伥, 肆意妄为。这伙官匪直把黄河三角洲一带搞得民不聊生。
赵、徐一伙多行不义, 不但激起百姓的切齿愤恨, 连一些上流乡绅也颇感不平。1933年冬, 乡绅联名告至省政府。省主席韩复榘为收买民心, 遂派员调查。赵、徐二人本都是为了一己私利而相互利用, 大难临头后自然各自想法自保。看看纸包不住火, 赵心德将一切罪责推给徐三, 但是他又害怕徐三反告, 就翻脸将徐三杀掉灭口, 此案最终不了了之。与徐三交往甚厚的吴德胜、傅瑞伍、任富贵等人难免产生兔死狐悲情绪, 大骂赵心德心狠手辣, 但又怕牵连到自己, 纷纷率知己心腹逃匿于天津法租界, 养精蓄锐, 以图东山再起。
吴德胜一伙在天津躲了一段时间后, 估计山东的风声已经过去, 便想安排傅瑞伍等人先杀回山东黄河口一带“趟趟路”, 他自己等时机成熟回山东再作草头王。
经过数月侦察、密谋, 1934年6月17日上午, 傅瑞伍他们准备化装登上由天津开往南方的“盛京”号商船, 在海上劫船谋财后, 再将船开往黄河口。谁知鬼使神差, “盛京”号竟趁涨潮提前拔锚起航。傅瑞伍等30几个人气喘吁吁赶到码头时, 早已船去坞空。失望之余, 他们得悉首航天津的英国太古洋行商船“顺天轮”下午由津返沪, 中途在山东烟台暂停。真是喜从天降, 傅瑞伍忙派人张罗购票事宜。
下午, 傅瑞伍、任富贵及傅瑞伍的小老婆薛氏约30余人准时到达码头。他们有的扮作富商巨贾, 摇头晃脑;有的扮作病人亲属, 一呼百应;薛氏黑牡丹则扮作贵夫人。一切武器皆藏于担架、被褥和衣服中, 一行人顺顺当当登上船, 按票上号码各进舱中。在驶离大沽口180里左右海域时, 这伙匪徒按计划犯下了这桩震惊海内外的英国商船“顺天轮”被劫案。
大结局
6月20日, 京、津、沪和南京等地的各大报纸都报道了“顺天轮”被劫案, 路透社、美联社等世界主要通讯社也都发了电讯稿。一时间, 世界舆论哗然。英驻华使馆频频向南京政府施压, 以求迅速破案。英领事馆武官狄华都里星夜赴济, 与主鲁官员韩复榘商谈营救人质事宜。
鉴于此, 南京国民党政府急令鲁、津当局速查此案。外交部鉴于国际压力, 电令主鲁要员韩复榘和青岛市市长沈鸿烈速派陆、海军赴黄河口一带, 严密搜查、追击、围剿匪徒, 营救被押人质!军政部长兼北平分会代委员长何应钦闻讯也火速致电北平英使馆“深表歉意”, 并愿与各方通力合作, 从速破案。
国民党南京政府最高决策者蒋介石此刻正飞临江西亲自督剿工农红军, 兵寡地少的红军却出奇地耐打善战, 已经令蒋介石五内生烟, 又闻报发生了震惊中外的“顺天轮”被劫案, 一股无名火猛窜顶门, 在最高军事会议上大发雷霆:“娘希匹!几个蟊贼竟敢劫外国的轮船, 严令向方 (韩复榘字) 限期破案。否则军法从处。”
军委会接令后, 调飞机前往黄河口一带低空侦察, 以期协助破案。国民党海军第三舰队司令谢刚哲即令驻长山的“永翔”、“海鸥”和驻威海的“冈安”、“镇海”四艘军舰速赴黄河口、神仙沟一带海域, 巡逻搜索, 务求将匪徒一网打尽, 以平天下之舆论。韩复榘也以长途电话饬令海防指挥部、沿海各县警察局, 昼夜派出巡船警士从速缉查。驻威海的英国海军也增派驱逐舰两艘、航空母舰一艘驶往神仙沟海域一带, 协同缉查。
至此, 在山东黄河口沿海的南至清水沟、北至洼拉沟一线海域, 竟破天荒地汇集了中外舰只多达12艘、战斗侦察机10余架。陆上近万名兵警层层拉网搜查, 海上战舰纵横扬波, 天上战斗机俯下冲上, 盘旋呼啸, 黄河口一时“盛况”空前。
南京政府自知理屈, 为尽快破案, 后来又增调七十四师马贯一旅和赵明远指挥的第一民团参与追缉, 大有不消灭这股土匪、救出人质誓不甘休的意味。而实际上, 上面急如流星, 下面却紧应慢动, 你说你的, 我拖我的。再说, 在这数百里沿海, 既有茫茫无际的苇荡, 又有葳葳蕤蕤的柽柳、蒲草和蜿蜒纵横的海沟河汊, 别说藏上百十号人, 就是整师整团的大部队藏在里面, 也不亚于泥牛入海、大海捞针。
一个多月过去了, 官兵仍然一无所获。蒋介石十分生气, 下达了“不成功则将参加围剿之各级指挥官全部就地正法”的死命令。面对上头一天比一天严厉的训令, 参加围剿的各级指挥官也开始着急起来, 只好对前线官兵不断许以高官厚禄。重赏之下, 必有勇夫, 前线搜剿官兵们的劲头这才调动了起来。
8月下旬的一天, 赵明远部的中尉副官刘景良在无意中捉住了土匪中一个小头目的小老婆, 并通过她带路, 刘景良只带一名护兵深入匪巢, 通过晓以利弊, 他终于说服匪首傅瑞伍等人同意谈判招安。而任富贵等匪首坚决不同意, 就连夜率领他们各自的部属远走他乡了。
谈判的结果是, 土匪将“顺天轮”上的“肉票”全部放回, 傅瑞伍接受招安成了堂堂正正的国军“海上纵队”分队长, 刘景良立了大功, 升任少校副官, 赵明远也当上了山东第五专署专员兼保安司令。对被绑受惊的外籍“肉票”, 国民政府外交部极尽安抚赔偿, 并一再向他们所在的国家赔礼道歉, 终于一一取得“谅解”。此时距案发已有两个多月了。

媒体艺术
英国大学专业设置的最大特点之一，就是各个专业都相互渗透、深入融合。例如，艺术与计算机、媒体、文学等都相互渗透，因此有了“媒体艺术”这样的专业。
Professor Breda Beban is Reader in Media Arts and one of the leading figures in Sheffield Hallam University's internationally recognized Art and Design Research Centre. She also holds a PhD from the prestigious Croatian Academy of Arts and Sciences in Zagreb.
Sheffield Hallam lecturer shows sexiest work at Venice Biennale
What's rumored to be the sexiest work in this year's Venice Biennale will be shown by critically acclaimed artist and Sheffield Hallam University lecturer Breda Beban as her new two-screen film The Most Beautiful Woman in Gucha opens at the exhibition on 6th June 07.
The film captures the moment of love at first sight borne of a passionate encounter between a beautiful dancer, a young man and a group of Romany musicians as a throng of festival goers look on.
The intensity of the film has proved to be addictive when previewed with viewers pirating and sharing the film via text and the internet turning it into a cult hit. As a result of this early preview, the influential Venice based art organization Nuova Icona invited Beban to stage a solo show of the work in its prestigious exhibition at the Venice Biennale, the worlds leading contemporary visual art show (10 June - 21 November 07).
The work comprises two screens; the first an eighteen minute reel of unedited film; the second the nine minute edited version which combines points of intense romantic chemistry from the raw documentary footage. Beban draws on themes of cultural mores of attraction and adds a new and anonymous young woman to the map of powerful female role models.

工业设计
英国和中国的工业设计有着很大的区别，中国的工业设计侧重于追求形式的完美，而在英国，要成为一个好的工业设计师，首先要有很好的创新能力。通过英国媒体的报道来可以了解英国对于工业设计创新的推崇。
Fantastic plastic
Extreme sports fans could soon have instant A&E medical treatment for broken limbs in remote locations, following a unique internationally award winning design of a versatile portable plastic splint.
The pioneering First Aid Splint is designed to protect and aid the recovery of damaged bones in isolated conditions, difficult to be reached by medical teams. Devised as part of an international collaboration between Sheffield Hallam University and French Institut Superieur de Plasturgie d'Alencon (ISPA) to explore the lightweight, pliable properties of plastic, the flexible structure should provide aid to the 45,000 victims of snow sport injuries which occur every year.
MA Industrial Design students Ching-Sui Kao from Taiwan and Geremi Durand, from St Ettiene, France, joined engineering student Maxime Duclous from the ISPA plastic centre of excellence to design FA Splint which incorporates essential medical advice with convenience. The innovative structure applies rigidness and heat quickly to the limb via a special gel created by a chemically reactive metal strip and saturated sodium acetate solution.
The innovative splint was conceived as part of a Design and Innovation in Plasturgy competition to design an object where the main element in plastic. The only UK representatives, Sheffield Hallam University, scooped two of four prizes in the February biannual competition, including the Jury's Grand prize for FA Splint, beating over forty submissions.
Paul Chamberlain, professor of design at Sheffield Hallam said: "Plastic has surprising uses that are not currently being explored - this competition is a great way to start exploring those possibilities. It's a great honor that the innovation and quality of design from our students has allowed them to walk away with half of the available prizes in an international competition. This acclaim is great news for their future careers and employability. The experience of working in partnership across seas has also been invaluable in increasing their skills in team work, international communication, distance working and appreciating cultural differences."
Six teams of two Sheffield Hallam students, and one ISPA, also addressed the social stigma and lifestyle appeal of users of mobility aids. Winning the category of Plastic on Us, a trophy and E5,000, designers have exploited new materials to provide new features and forms for walking aids in the form of O'Leg. Jonathan Grant, from Cambridge, and Faustine Le Berre, from Annecy, France have created a fashionable, adjustable and lightweight support to appeal to sports enthusiasts and a growing aging population.
Two other competition categories, sponsored by the French Plastic Industry, included Plastic in the Home and Plastic Around Us.
The innovative designs are currently available for viewing in Alencon in France, and although in its initial stage, projects are seeking funding and development opportunities.

GRE: Not required
美国艺术设计专业的申请条件虽没有理工科申请时那么复杂，招生录取条件主要还是看你的艺术修养，也就是拿你的作品说话，下面总结出的艺术设计专业的申请条件，希望对同学们有所帮助。
1、考试
本科生参加TOEFL考试，分数80-100，个别学校70分即可，参加SAT考试，1720分以上即可。
研究生TOEFL考试不低于100分，GRE分数1000以上即可，不是重点参考对象，很多专业不要GRE，纯艺术的大多专业和专业艺术院校的艺术和设计专业都不要。工业设计，影视类考一下好，艺术管理之类的专业有些要求考GMAT。
艺术类的英语考试成绩是敲门砖，只要过了门槛就可以了，关键专业过硬。
2、GPA
也就是成绩单。这个也不重要，数据上的东西教授分不出来看不出来真实的内容，往往你的作品决定了你的成败。
3、推荐信
推荐信写巧妙，写好了，还有用的，找一个分量重的人来写，写出来你所拥有的非凡的能力，美国人也很重视社会关系。
4、作品
这个是你的大头，决定你能够被录取的东西。非同小可，可以做一本设计精良的画册，并说明作品创作过程和理念，然后每个作品配上幻灯片。
这里注意，影视媒体和动画的作品不是越多越好，即使是一个未完成的作品，一定要制作精良，分量足够才可以的.。
也不是每个人都能够拿个什么大奖去申请的，所以你的作品一定要自信，要是你的原创作品的，最后的录取简而言之，取决于你的理念和技法，也就是原创性表达思维的能力。
如果没有学过艺术科系，反而成了特长，一定要充分展示你所学习的商科，物力，化学，数学什么的知识，理念和你的作品之间的联系。
5、PS
一、动漫设计专业概况
创艺典留学专家介绍说，动漫设计专业是一门综合性很强的专业，它要求学生不仅要具备一定的审美能力、手绘能力，而且还要求学生具备一定的创新能力和写作能力。对于动漫设计专业来说，这几种能力是必不可少的，尤其是创新能力。优秀的动漫设计师总是有着超乎常人的想象力和创新意识，时刻迸发出创作的灵感和奇艺的思想火花。
动漫设计专业主要通过漫画和动画结合故事情节的形式展现，借助高科技一平面二维、三维动画特效等表现手法，创造特有的视觉艺术表现形式。随着动漫市场需求的增大，动漫设计师也日建成为一个高薪的朝阳产业，其广阔的就业前景和薪酬回报吸引了一批艺术爱好者纷纷进入此专业深造。

至于动漫设计专业毕业生的薪水问题，创艺典艺术留学专家介绍说平均薪水能够达到20万的学校已是相当普遍，有了一定经验后的优秀动漫设计年薪达到40万已不再是什么难事。总体来说，由于国内对此专业人才的需求比较大，而高端设计人才又紧缺的矛盾，使得留学归国的动漫设计师成了抢手的艺术人才。
三、动漫设计专业的课程设置
创艺典留学专家介绍说，动漫设计专业的课程颇多，主要是以理论课程和实践课程相结合的方式。理论课程包括前期策划、原画设计基础、3D基础知识等，实践课程包括道具与场景设计、二维动画设计、3D道具与场景设计、动漫三维角色制作和三维动画特效设计。动漫设计专业非常注重实际操作能力，学生在选择学校时不要一味的追求名校，而应该注重应用教学和动漫设计专业靠前的院校。由于美国和日本的动漫设计专业发展较为成熟，同学们不防多加留意美国和日本的动漫设计院校。
四：动漫设计专业优秀院校推荐
日本的动漫产业近几年来已经成为日本的文化代表，日本开设动漫专业的大学虽然为数不多，但是在世界上市赫赫有名的。
日本京都精华大学
日本京都精华大学是最早开设动漫专业的大学，早在2000年时这所大学就已经开设了漫画课程，可以说是开创了日本动漫专业的先河。日本精华京都大学有很多来自日本和韩国的留学生，很多知名的漫画家都是出自此大学。因此，到日本京都精华大学学习动漫设计专业会激发每个艺术者身上无限的潜能。
美国的动漫产业也是走在了时代的前沿，一些优秀的院校都开设有动漫设计专业，并且吸纳了很多前来求学的艺术生。
萨凡纳艺术与设计学院
萨凡纳艺术设计学院以电脑艺术最为著名，目前在全美排名前五名，课程内容主要着力于3-D Animation、2-D Animation、Game、Interactive and Motion Graphic等领域，其中以3-D Animation主修的毕业生在业界已有不错的口碑和表现。
美国开设动漫设计的院校还有：加州艺术学院、纽约大学艺术学院、帕森设计学院、罗德岛设计学院、润林艺术设计学院、舍瑞丹学院和满帆培训学院。
因此不管是到日本还是到美国你都有非常大的选择余地，开设动漫设计的院校你都可以从教学设施和学校背景以及申请要求上加以甄别，最终进入自己理想中的艺术大学。
美国作为大部分音乐专业学生的选择地点，不止因为这个国家本身在教育上的优势与 先进的理念，更是因为它储备着丰富的教学资源，从设施，环境，特别是来自世界各地的师资力量。
那么问题就来了？很多家长和国内专业院校的学生问过我，音乐专业出国择校时，排名因素重要么？应该选择独立的音乐学院还是综合大学里面的音乐学院？两者到底有什么区别？
首先需要明确指出且更正正大部分学生与家长的错误观点，排名并不意味着一切，美国区别于中国，官方没有出具过任何大学排名，作为高校的综合实力，基本参考民间的一些权威性的网站分析资料来判断学校的好坏。而作为比较特殊的艺术类，特别是音乐类，如今并没有一份权威性的排名标准，当然几所美国本土如雷贯耳的世界级音乐学院，教学质量肯定是毋庸置疑的，但并不代表着里面的学生一定优于其他音乐学院的学生。所以作为音乐专业的学生重要的择师而不是择校。性格与导师是否能相处好？自己专业领域所欠缺的这位导师是否正好比较突出？老师能不能保证教学课时？（因为很多闻名在外的教授，忙于世界各地的走访，开课，演讲，演奏会，并不能保证教学本身的课时安排）等等一系列的问题，都是学生与家长应该考虑的。美国不缺好的老师，而且只多不少，所以把眼光只集中在学校名气上，是一个不恰当的思考方式。
独立的音乐学院还是综合大学里面的音乐学院？对于这个问题，要明确的是两者不存在各自学校师资专业水平与教学质量上一定的孰优孰劣。不能因为大家熟知的茱莉亚或是柯蒂斯，就断言专业音乐学院一定优于综合大学里的音乐学院，比如罗切斯特的伊斯曼，密歇根大学安娜堡里的音乐学院，耶鲁大学或是约翰霍普金斯大学等等，他们各自的音乐学院也是顶尖的。主要还是要看学生自己偏向于哪类求学环境，是否在求学期间有精力或是兴趣去修一些其他专业的选修课来充实自己，拓宽眼界，这些都是能辅助且的确能帮助到个人艺术水平提升的因素。
1、艺术和设计专业关于APS审核环节与其他专业有何不同：APS审核中关于艺术类有特别的审核要求，多数纯艺术专业无需参加审核面试，但是也有特殊需要面试的时候，具体要看每个学生专业详情而定，如有拿不准的可咨询专业顾问老师。设计专业一般是要参加审核面试的，审核形式与普通专业类似。
2、申请时与其他专业的不同之处：这两类专业一般需要提供作品集或者光盘，但是不同学校对于作品的要求不尽相同，要按照具体要求准备。专家提醒：作品的准备有时会对申请起到很重要的作用，所以要认真准备，切不可糊弄。
3、院校的选择：院校的选择也是有一定要求和限制的，例如审核形式不同也会影响院校选择。艺术和设计专业的选校至关重要，专家提醒：为了更好的保障赴德后的顺利入学，建议学生们在国内进行院校选择时候注意院校类型的区别和自身条件的匹配。
4、入学考试：这两类专业不同于一般专业的地方还在于，通常情况下是需要参加学校组织的入学专业考试(当然语言考试也是需要的)。所以最终能否顺利进入专业，能进入哪个阶段，重要在于考试及之前的专业知识表现。专家提醒：学生在德国备考期间也不要放松专业的准备。
5、中学生可否申请：对于艺术专业而言，申请条件与其他普通专业稍有不同，如果你是艺术类学生(有相应标准确定是否是艺术生)，那么即使是高中生也是可以申请大学的。但是其中大学选择有些微限制。专家提醒：中学生申请与大学生的要求有所不同，未满十八岁的学生也有相应要求，申请时候请注意。
To me, art is like a mystery which is to be solved. I see an artwork as the concentration of an idea or concept into a physical entity. The idea or concept is rarely evident through just looking at piece; it requires analysis or scrutiny to interpret it. This is why I am rarely happy with a piece of art unless I can see some meaning behind it. Whether it is my own or another person’s, I feel a great satisfaction when I discover an underlying theme or message; deliberate or not. It is like poring over a cryptic riddle or a puzzle for time until all at once it falls into place.
Perhaps it is my obsession with problem-inducing things: cryptic crosswords, chess, Rubik’s cubes, poker, cribbage and scrabble that have induced this vision of art. It is the same either way. If I am looking at a Mark Rothko painting, Rothko has set the puzzle to be deciphered and I am attempting to solve it, even if the answer is as simple as, ‘a perfect combination of colour’. If I create an artwork, it will have hidden parameters evident only by scrutiny. It may be easy to interpret or it may be difficult, it doesn’t matter. I don’t mind if people don’t interpret it the way I intended; only that it makes sense in their own minds and that it gives them that same sense of satisfaction that I get when I solve a puzzle. You could say that that is the ultimate motivation for the art that I produce.
This theme has also played a strong role in the work that I have been doing over the past year in my Art Foundation course. In the last ’self’-orientated project I focussed on my fascination with playing cards and chess combined with the physical aspects of my life. This has developed into my current project that concentrates on aspects of chance (chess, playing cards) combined, symbolically, with aspects of purpose (religion, gods, fate, strategy) through many different mediums, including customised board games and sculptures. I am intrigued with hidden meanings, so I am looking at artists such as Joseph Beuys and Leonardo Da Vinci who are known to use a lot of symbolism in their work.
My current work has developed from many of the foundation course projects I have done since the beginning of the year. I feel that this year has been a significant indication of what path I want to follow in the future. I initially enrolled with the mindset of trying it out and deciding what to do later on in the year. I have worked hard at keeping up with work and have enjoyed being able to develop my own ideas creatively over the last two terms. The foundation course has already taught me how to be broad-minded about what art can be, and the learning process has been somewhat enlightening. Ultimately I have enjoyed the course; whether it is experimenting with interesting ideas in my own space, sharing ideas with my peers about what we are doing or constructing sculptures in the workshops. Upon having wandered around the degree student’s areas a few times just to look at the work that is being produced I feel a connection to what they are doing and what I am currently learning about and it makes me want to go further with my work. This is why I wish to continue on at the degree course. I believe it will challenge me and help me to evolve the art that I do to an even further level.
Since October , I have had a Saturday job working as an assistant in a butcher’s. This job requires me to make deliveries, clean the shop, serve customers, prepare meat and I often help out at the hog roast functions that the shop hires out. I have done my best to work hard at this, as it is the only proper job I have had apart from a paper round. Alongside attending the foundation course I feel that it has made me a much more organised and confident person in terms of arranging my life. I have definitely enjoyed working there as much as I have worked hard at it. To resound the work I have done I have been offered more work at the shop and at supervising hog roasts during the summer.
Yours sincerely,
