After graduation
After graduationAs an alumnus of the master’s course Education in Arts, you will have specialist knowledge, experience and research skills that enable you to take your professional practice to a higher level – and to continue to do so, even into the far future. As such, your research project will not disappear into a drawer but provide the starting point for a continuous learning process: a way of thinking and doing that you can draw on for the rest of your life.
Specialist in a pluriform professional field
Our society is always in motion. The professional field of an artisteducator is just as dynamic. Many alumni apply the knowledge and expertise they acquired in their roles as art teachers at Dutch primary or secondary schools, in intermediate or higher vocational education or in extracurricular art education – for example in arts centres and education departments attached to cultural institutions. But this master’s course also adds depth to the work of social community workers, creative therapists, policy makers, curators and investigative journalists. In some cases, graduate artisteducators even develop new areas of work that had not previously existed.
The results of my graduation thesis got me so excited that I want to do further research.

The importance of teaching literacy and numeracy is often emphasised. However, our rapidly changing world is bringing about shifts in the content of education. Curriculum innovations are on the increase and in addition to maths and literacy, other areas of learning are becoming more important for society.
