*Masters in Fine Art 120 ECTS*
The two-year program is process-based and individually flexible in the

their practices, choice of materials, method and interpretation; and a 
focus on the contexts of their art practice in contemporary, historical, 
political and cultural terms. A multi-disciplinary staff, together with 
courses and international projects gives the students the basis for 
careers in Sweden and abroad.
