Annotation

University of applied sciences degree course. The "Expressive Arts in Social Transformation (EAST)" degree is an undergraduate, professional degree course and also provides entry to the Intermediate Art Therapy, Art Analogue Coaching and Social Work Master’s degree programmes. This degree is only as full-time.

Visual Arts, Music, Poetry and Performance Art

The EAST Bachelor’s degree course may be studied with the specialisations Visual Arts, Music, Poetry or Performance Art. The focus modules are under the theme of 'Art in Context' and run throughout the degree course. In the first semester, the various artistic disciplines are introduced as part of the orientation studies; the choice of an artistic focus is then made for the second semester. The course teaches the ability to use the artistic disciplines as experimental spaces for artistic questions and to accompany social and societal change processes with artistic means.

Community Art

The degree course offers sound artistic training, experiential learning and practice-based work. During their studies, students get to know possible fields of work in the practice-related modules and implement their own artistic-social projects in selected fields of work. This gives students the opportunity to deal with different target groups, fields of application and the requirements of the world of work. They have a repertoire of actions at their disposal, but also project-based, experimental methods, in order to be able to implement projects of great topicality that are limited in time and subject matter.
