The Bachelor of Design at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia offers Contemporary Jewellery as an area of practice in the Object Design disciplinary studio, one of six disciplinary studios in the Integrated Design specialisation. Reflected in the final year graduation projects, students learn to develop an integrated design approach by drawing on technical, experimental and conceptual skills across multiple disciplinary studios.
Object Design students are encouraged to explore contemporary jewellery as an expanded practice by seeking novel methods of adornment, communication and material enquiry. Supported by tutors and technical staff with expertise in design and digital making, students create diverse jewellery outcomes that examine current concerns of our time including the significance of sustainability, social well-being and cultural heritage.
