Artisteducator – one word, multiple identities, endless possibilities

In this master’s course, the roles of educator, artist and researcher are inextricably linked: they affirm and complement each other. The master’s course Education in Arts helps you to balance between direct engagement and distance, between forward vision and past reflection, between wanting to grasp and understand – and consciously daring to go beyond what they already know.
