### About
RMIT School of Art prepares students for a career as skilled practitioners, flexible researchers and future innovators, able to provide leadership within the rapidly changing international field of craft, design, interdisciplinary practice, emerging technologies and contemporary culture. Drawing on RMIT’s established international leadership in the fields of gold and silversmithing and ceramics, RMIT School of Art regards:
- Craft and material practices as an approach to creating, as much as it is a practice in its own right, and therefore it is naturally multi-disciplinary. Anyone who applies skilled making to the world around them is practicing craft.
- Artisanal-led values and vitality as arguably core to our recovery as a community and an economy as we begin to revalue qualities such as care. (In a post-COVID world - or even COVID normal)
- Committed to technology and design as essential for our graduates to bring keen material knowledge to their work and to understand the history and the future of the materials they use. We need them to design ethically and environmentally.**
