Master’s program for exhibition theory and -praxis
/ecm is a two-year postgraduate program at the University of Applied Arts Vienna that teaches core competences in the expanded field of museums and exhibitions. The aim of this part-time study program is to lay a foundation for research and professionalization within the field of arts and culture. Studying and engaging with related theories enable the participants to develop skills for conceptualizing, visualizing, communicating and realizing projects in institutions and the independent scene. An integral part of the transdisciplinary study program is the completion of a group project linking theory and praxis. Collaborative curatorial research processes lend themselves to learning these skills and provide a field of experimentation for applied curatorial studies.
/ecm is directed by Martina Griesser, Christine Haupt-Stummer, Renate Höllwart, Beatrice Jaschke, Monika Sommer, Nora Sternfeld and Luisa Ziaja.
The next /ecm study program starts in October 2018. Applications are accepted now. /ecm 2018 entrance seminars will take place on April 28, May 5, and June 15. B2 level in german and english are requested.
