The low number of participants of the programme provides an opportunity to establish a relationship between masters and students. Within the curriculum, there is also a possibility to implement personal-individual tutoring based on students’ knowledge and their chosen or wished artistic direction. For this, the university offers the most outstanding artists and teachers in their field. The university also ensures study processes with multi-media and info-communication technology. A wide theoretical background broadens students’ knowledge and awareness, side by side with the principle of ‘learning by doing’. These develop essential competencies, such as digital knowledge for a choreographer’s work, reflections on up-to-date methods of studying-teaching, artistic self-reflection, and critical thinking.
