ArtEZ Institute of the Arts trains students for professions in which art, knowledge and creativity play a central role. For more than 3000 students, ArtEZ offers a related selection of Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes in visual art, architecture, fashion, design, music, theatre, creative writing, dance and art education. At the same time, ArtEZ is a specialised knowledge institute where lecturers combine theory and practice. ArtEZ works together with a large number of partners at home and abroad, such as other educational institutes, companies, governing bodies and non-profit organisations. At ArtEZ, education is focused on students’ artistic, intellectual and personal growth. They are trained in a professional role that closely matches their talent, personality and ambition and they receive support from lecturers who have more than earned their spurs in professional practice. Because of this individual approach, students are well prepared for their future careers as arts and culture professionals. ArtEZ is one of the major art institutes in the Netherlands, with locations in Arnhem, Enschede and Zwolle. In addition to approximately 3000 students, ArtEZ employs 900 lecturers and other staff. The Board of Governors and support services are based in Arnhem. (Source: the university’s website)
