Bachelor Art Education

We teach you the basic principles of art, design, media, materiality and communication; you develop your own artistic and creative practice.

This degree programme:

is the only one of its kind in Switzerland, combining creative, artistic production with academic reflection: while you develop your artistic and creative practice at HKB, the University of Bern supplies the history of art and art theory components of the programme.
provides the expert contextual knowledge required for teaching art and design. This is professionalised in the MA in Art Education.
gives you your first experience of teaching in a range of professional fields – in collaboration with our school and museum partners.
is not a professional teaching qualification in itself, but prepares you for the follow-on MA in Art Education.
