Our profiles sharpen yours

Excellent artistic support remains the focus of the ‘Artistic Core Area’. It comprises 60 ECTS credits in the Master's programme, i.e. half of the total credits. Here you can develop your skills in individual lessons in your main artistic subject and in supplementary courses such as class lessons, subject-specific specialisation, orchestra or ensemble, and mature into an artistic personality.

Your profile and project, which can be selected from a wide variety of options, give you creative freedom to set your own personal priorities.
