Drawing 1 | Federation University

VAMIN1011 Drawing 1

"This course provides students with a foundational knowledge of the principles, elements, and methods of the discipline of drawing in both traditional and contemporary practice. The course aims at developing students' understanding and awareness of analytical and observational skills in the making process of drawing. Students are instructed to develop and engage their hand-and-eye concentration and competency in problem-solving skills in drawing techniques. Along with a range of observational skills, essential in the practice of drawing, students are introduced to the materials and media employed in drawing, as well as to the specific terminology and vocabulary of drawing that will enhance their understanding of, and active creative participation in, visual practice and communication. Drawing 1 is an introductory component of the Fine Art and Graphic Design and Multimedia programs and is part 1 of 2 in a sequential study of drawing."

Commonwealth supported place (CSP)

A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).

2026 contribution amount* $1,192
2026 grandfathered contribution amount^ $997

^ If you are a continuing student who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

* For Psychology and Social Work bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.

Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.
