Objectives
Students participate in four seminars, depending on the theoretical needs encountered in the course of their study and from the perspective of their own artistic practice and theoretical interests.
Seminars are incorporated into the Master’s programme as a specific form of study, in which theoretical content is transmitted in a flexible and open working structure, subject to intervention and dialogue on the part of students.
Seminars are partly supported by the artistic and theoretical investigations currently being conducted at the KASK, so that students are engaged in seminars that focus on pertinent problems and themes.

Topics
Each seminar comprises a single unit of study within this segment of the programme.
Seminars focus on specific problems and investigations.
The seminars are thematic in nature and are not intended as overviews.
In terms of content, seminars in the Master’s programme may be on any subject or theme linked to the study areas of the visual and audiovisual arts.
The specific focus of a seminar evolves from investigation by an instructor/lecturer.
The seminars may reach beyond the standard limits of specific artistic disciplines.

Prerequisites
It is strongly advised that students have the required competencies of the Bachelor’s programme in visual or audiovisual art.

Final Objectives
- In a well-grounded manner, students can share thoughts and reflections concerning a scientific or artistic investigation.
- Students demonstrate their capacity for originality and creativity in expanding knowledge and acquiring insight.
- Students demonstrate the potential added value of collaboration that goes beyond specific artistic disciplines and can moreover achieve that added value in a multidisciplinary environment.
- Students have advanced understanding of and insight into scientific and/or artistic knowledge inherent to their specific domain in the visual or audiovisual arts.
- Students have insight into the most recent contemporary knowledge in a specific area and can follow current research and interpretation.
