Unique in Europe (studying)
With the major-minor programme model, students can choose their specialist focus from the fields of Art Education, Design, Film, Cultural Critique, Fine Arts, Music, Dance, Theatre and Transdisciplinarity. In addition, they can choose one or two minors to refine their individual study profile.
Events

The arts expand the boundaries of what is imaginable. They create possibilities before anyone has even asked for them and keep open what might otherwise have been decided long ago. Our graduates carry this imagination onto stages and into studios, companies, newsrooms, and classrooms.
