The course is split into two consecutive study sections. Modules 1 and 2 impart knowledge in the field of cultural theory and cultural education. Basic knowledge of the cultural business and introductions to the profile fields of art, music and literature/theatre conclude the theoretical foundation in the basic studies.
In the second year of study, students can choose specialisations in line with their interests in the areas of Art, Music or Literature and Theatre. Relevant contents are also provided by cooperation partners.
Individual specialisation is also supported by a practical phase, culminating in a specific research project in the specialisation chosen.
