Art is studied as a long subject for elementary school teachers. This means that you deal with this subject more intensively and extensively than with a regular short subject. The art course lasts seven semesters and takes place at the art academy. It concludes with the First State Examination.
The focus is on an in-depth examination of aesthetic practice. To this end, you can choose from a wide range of art education courses and numerous study workshops, including in the areas of printing, textiles, wood, ceramics, books and paper.
Through your own artistic practice, you will acquire a variety of forms of expression and techniques that are particularly relevant for teaching art at elementary school. Subject-specific content is taught in art education courses as well as supplemented by art science fundamentals.
A prerequisite for admission to the course is a successful entrance examination for the teaching profession at elementary school. The application deadline is April 30 of each year.
