An important part of the educational process consists of individual or self-motivated projects in the course of which the student will display sufficient maturity and the ability to plan her/his own artistic growth.  IN addition, the students are also offered a wide range of theoretical subjects from the areas of art history, aesthetics and art philosophy, as well as other, voluntary subjects. The course also includes and interdisciplinary exchange, which presents a unique opportunity to solve semestral assignments and defend a concluding project in a studio of a different field of study,  or an international exchange, which may take the form of study or a working internship.
