Kunstwissenschaft und Medienphilosophie (Magister) at Staatliche Hochschule für Gestaltung Karlsruhe (HfG)

Magister Artium (M.A.) programme conveying the historical and theoretical foundations of the arts and media. Art history is studied systematically rather than purely historically, with emphasis on modern and contemporary art and aesthetic theory, while media philosophy explores media staging in social and political contexts. Its structure follows the former university Magister programmes.

What you will study

Students of art studies take media philosophy as a minor, and students of media philosophy take art studies, plus a further minor from art or design; theory is translated into practical projects with media art and design students. Every degree programme combines a major subject with two minor subjects, always one theory subject and one practice subject, and is organised as project-based study from the first semester.
