Bachelor’s Degree Certified lower secondary education teacher (visual arts)
A visual art teacher helps developing in young people sensitivity to and curiosity about art and culture by means of different projects.
The Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Arts programme has therefore two goals: on the one hand, it gets students practicing different artistic disciplines and on the other hand, it aims at proposing appropriate and innovative educational tools .
Creativity, aesthetic sense, observation skills and artistic practice are skills on which the programme focuses during learning activities but also workshops and study trips.
The students are also trained to structure their educational knowledge and to create methodological strategies in order to ease their pupils’ learning and to increase their awareness of the different visual art expressions.
We train responsible teachers who are open to the world.
