MASTER OF RESEARCH IN ART & DESIGN
This Master-after-Master programme is intended for particularly gifted Masters graduates wishing to extend their studies in artistic research. This includes artists and designers, but also Masters graduates who can present a valuable artistic research project. The Master of Research in Art and Design offers students the space to further develop their insights and skills. Students’ personal artistic development will be encouraged through the preparation of an individual and original curriculum. Of great importance is their research in the visual arts, whereby work process, methodology and reflection correlate with the artistic work. As a research and monitoring platform, the Master of Research in Art and Design aims to provide young researchers with the necessary support for the further development of their personal artistic project.
Students will accomplish a year-long individual course with theoretical, research-methodological and art-related aspects. Under the supervision of both fixed and freely chosen visiting lecturers, students will set out a research programme which will also be explicitated in visual and/or written form.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
The Master of Research in Art and Design is intended firstly for candidates with a Master of Art and Design degree or an equivalent qualification. The admissions committee can depart from this requirement if there are sufficient grounds. However, a Master’s degree or an equivalent qualification remains a prerequisite.
In September, candidates will be invited to an interview with the admissions committee. Applicants will present their research question to a committee consisting of experts who will follow students throughout the year. The interview will give students the opportunity to demonstrate a relevant link between their research question and their visual work. The committee will evaluate the quality of the visual work and the potential of the research. A methodological work plan will be an advantage in this respect.
