The MA programmes at the HGK build on an artistic position that has already been formulated or on design experience.
The master’s degree in art or design deepens previously acquired skills and knowledge, putting them into a broader context in terms of methods and content, and ensuring that graduates are forging connections to research-oriented practice and reflection.
Usually the master’s programme is two years long (Masterstudio Design takes one and a half years) and is concluded with the internationally recognised title Master of Arts in the respective discipline.
