Welcome to Whitecliffe College of Arts and Design. Congratulations on
considering the Arts as a career choice. At Whitecliffe we recognise the
central role of creative arts in today's world and pride ourselves on offering
a vibrant range of arts and design oriented career opportunities.
At undergraduate level we educate students in traditional and contemporary
aspects of arts and design. Skills of analysis, creative thinking,
visualisation and critique are all nurtured, as are entrepreneurial skills.
At postgraduate level we provide higher learning and research opportunities
in the fine arts as well as within our three unique master's degrees; arts
mangement; arts therapy and arts therapy (clinical). All our programmes are
research-led so students continually have access to people with the latest
knowledge in their fields.
The environment has always been a very important aspect of Whitecliffe
College of Arts and Design and we're delighted with our new building in
Parnell, the area where we originally set up 26 years ago. Our main building is
now located at Brooke House on Balfour Road, near the Rose Gardens and
overlooking Auckland Harbour.

This move means that Foundation and first year BFA students enjoy modern
facilities, easy access to the city and public transport and the chance to
mingle with Fashion Design, Graphic Design, and Photography students at all
levels. Brooke House is the centre for contextual studies lectures, electives,
seminars and technical support, as well as the library. This is also where
students from our four Postgraduate programmes gather when attending their low
residency postgraduate seminars. Our Fine Art students enjoy the use of
wonderful studio spaces at 130 St George's Bay Road.
We believe we offer you a unique opportunity at Whitecliffe to study in an
environment that will develop your creative ability to its fullest potential.
We are ready to support you in reaching your educational goals and encourage
and challenge you to take the opportunities offered at Whitecliffe.
