Digital portfolio
In addition to applying for courses you need to send your
digital portfolio and motivational letter to us (same deadline as
the course application). It should consists of approximately 5
samples that shows your recent artistic work. After the deadline
our teachers will look through the applications and do the
selection based on the artistic quality of the portfolio along with
the motivational letter. In addition we constantly have to adapt to
the number of studio places accessible so whether or not we're able
to offer a place may also depend on how many students, BA/MA, we
expect to have when the term starts.
Send your work samples and letter of motivation to international.art@umu.se
with WeTransfer (if large files).
Courses
We offer two course packages per semester (one on BA level and
one on MA level) each corresponding to 30 ECTS. Follow the links
for information about them and what courses are included. The
course packages we offer for the autumn semester 2022 are:
Artistic practice, bachelor's level,
term 3
Artistic practice, master's level,
term 1
The number of credits a student can be admitted to is restricted
to 30 ECTS per term, which equals full-time studies. Students who
require a residence permit must be admitted to 30 ECTS. If students
are admitted to 30 ECTS the exceeding courses that the student has
applied for will be dropped, with the exemption of Swedish for
International Students, Beginners´ Courses. These courses can be
selected in addition to 30 ECTS in other subjects.
Besides the courses in your course package you have the option
to sign up for several workshops that we offer. These will not give
you any extra credits and therefore they will not be shown on your
transcript of records nevertheless they will hopefully provide you
with new skills and would you like to have them documented when you
leave you may ask responsible teacher to confirm your participation
with a certificate.
