BA/BS in performART

This bachelor's programme combines fine art, performance and stage work in one course of study. Students can follow a path toward the stage, artistic performance or new forms of expression. The first year introduces craft and design skills in sculpture, painting, digital media and performance, and music and sound installation. Training in body work, voice and speech and in co-creative working runs throughout, and students receive a basic grounding in acting. From the second year, students set their own emphases and work on projects. In the later part, electives from across the university can prepare for a master's degree. Study is full-time and begins in the autumn. The course is presented as the only one in Germany that links visual and performing arts. Study is full-time, the Bachelor of Arts is state-recognised, and a starter scholarship can lower the fee.
