Course Description

Course Profile

Painting, full-time

The Painting 1st Degree Programme prepares graduates for independent artistic work as well as for active participation in the existing art market.

The programme prepares graduates to play the role of an animator of culture-creating activities, a coordinator and participant of projects in the area of culture and art, an independent, critical and ethical artist.

The aim of 1st Degree Programme is to shape the awareness of the need for a constant and continuous: improvement of one's artistic skill, personality, creativity, and search for one's place in a dynamically changing reality.

The syllabus, built on the basis of the educational standards required for a Degree in Painting, consciously combines the latest research in the field of broadly understood painting (new media, scenography, graphics, photography, intermedia, and the basics of interior design) with classic easel and architectural painting techniques, technical skills and a broad knowledge of art history.

Teaching Methods are based on creating mechanisms of encouragement and conditions for the active participation of students in scientific and artistic activities outside the University (the organization of exhibitions, conferences of students and young academics, support for the activities of student groups).

Students are encouraged to participate in exchange programmes e.g. within the Erasmus Program with such universities as:
