Art and Media Studies
In the Art and Media Studies track, you study how artistic and cultural expressions develop under the influence of digitalization, mediatization, and privatization of public space. You combine theories from various disciplines, such as media studies, cultural studies, literary studies, sociology and philosophy. You learn to analyze how innovations come about and what their implications are for society, and to communicate about this professionally. This is a track of MA Culture Studies.
Central topics in the program are the convergence of public and private spheres, intermediality and transmediality, participatory art and gaming practices, the Anthropocene and new responsibilities for the earth, and urgent media topics such as migration and sustainability.
- Reflect on questions such as:
- How is democracy functioning in an information overloaded digital public sphere?
- What is the role of artists in current public spheres?
- How can games be considered art?
- What type of social critique can we find in visual art objects (such as video art)
- What are new aesthetics on online platforms?
- Develop communicative skills such as writing, analyzing and interpreting texts and images, critical reflection on societal issues, and participating in public debates.
- Turn academic content into publications that are accessible to a wider public through Diggit Magazine, both a learning instrument and an online news platform focusing on arts, digital culture, and globalization.
Typical courses are:
- New private and Public Spheres
- Sublime: Art and Ecology
- Intimacy, Privacy and Authenticity
- Authorship and Persona: Fabricating Identity
Į magistro studijų programas gali stoti visi, baigę universitetą arba besimokantys paskutiniame kurse. Studijos kurias baigei ar tebesimokai turi būti panašios krypties kaip ir tos, į kurias nori stoti, kadangi priėmimas yra paremtas ECTS kreditų suderinamumu.
- ECTS kreditų išrašas - jei dar nesi baigęs aukštosios mokyklos, būtina prisegti ECTS kreditų išrašą, kuriame būtų matyti, kokius dalykus Tu mokeisi bei kokius pažymius ir kiek kreditų už juos gavai. Kai siunti anketą paskutiniame kurse, diplomą reikia prisegti vėliau, kai tik jį gausi.
- Bakalauro diplomas – jei jau esi baigęs aukštąją mokyklą, išrašo nereikia, užtenka prie anketos prisegti savo Bakalauro diplomą.
SVARBU: anglų kalbos testo sertifikatą privaloma pateikti kartu su visais dokumentais, atsiunčiant anketą. Universitetas nesvarsto stojimo anketų be anglų kalbos testo rezultatų, todėl sertifikatą privaloma pateikti iki stojimo pabaigos. Anglų kalbos žinias gali patvirtinti vienu iš šių būdų:
- IELTS – 6.5, ne mažiau nei 6.0 iš kiekvienos dalies
- TOEFL – 90
