Content

Projects  
The Project Programme consists of workshops, projects and presentations. With the development and realisation of projects in a collaborative setting, the students intensify their own research and learn to place this in a broader discipline-related context. 
 
The project programme consists of the following components: 
  • one or more projects of the Painting programme and/or combined FMI study programmes. 
  • An elective project from the project offering of the Knowledge Centre and Project Bureau, or a project of the student’s own choice, whereby working on or participating in projects outside of the institute is encouraged and can be credited. 
 
The instructional modes are action learning, assignment, problem-based learning, project-based learning. Active attendance and participation followed by a presentation of the results are mandatory. 
 
Trips  
The Trips Programme consists of group excursions and visits to festivals, cultural institutes, galleries, art fairs, artists, curators, collectors et cetera. With this programme, master’s students of the different programs of the FMI enter into dialogue with representatives of their professional field and fields of interest and become acquainted more deeply with its diversity. Following both the personal needs of individual students and the shared practices between them, a programme of visits and discussions with the industry is organised at local/regional, national and international level. A visit to an international destination is part of the Trips Programme.  
 
The instructional modes are assignment, problem-based learning, project education. Active attendance and participation are mandatory. For Projects & Trips combined, students receive a total of 5 ECs. The ratio between credits for Projects & Trips may vary, per year and per student.
