Stronger in your role as teacher, artist and researcher
During this abridged three-year programme, you follow the curriculum of the part-time bachelor’s course Fine Art and Design in Education tailor-made for a year and a half, followed by the curriculum of the part-time master’s course Education in Arts for a further year and a half. Whereas in the first half of this programme you are trained as an artisteducator who connects artistry with teaching, the second half consists primarily of conducting research into social issues in the context of recent and inspiring developments in arts-based pedagogy. You develop as an agent of change and learn to be even stronger in your role as teacher, artist and researcher.
Teaching qualification and master’s degree
This double degree programme is aimed at students already in possession of a bachelor's degree from an art course (fine art or design) at university of applied sciences level who want to go on to gain both a teaching qualification and a master’s degree in the space of 3 years. In this combined programme, the roles of teacher, artist and researcher are inextricably linked together: they reinforce and complement one another.
