Cultures of Arts, Science and Technology (research)
Master
This Research Master trains you in the interrelated domains of modern culture, science, technology, and the arts. It is a two-year, full-time, English-language programme accredited by the Dutch-Flemish Accreditation Organisation with a score of 'good'.
Are you inquisitive, curious, and open-minded? Are you interested in how science, the arts, and technology contribute to modern culture? Then consider the Research Master in Cultures of Art, Science, and Technology (CAST). CAST is a broad, interdisciplinary programme that highlights the importance of studying the roles of the arts, science, and technology to understand modern cultures. Today's societal issues, such as the COVID-19 crisis and climate change, are deeply intertwined with developments in these fields.
CAST explores:
- The roles of the arts, science, and technology in modern culture, including their similarities and differences
- The interactions and intersections between the arts, science, and technology
- The arts, science, and technology as practices of modern culture
The arts, science, and technology “imagine” our culture’s future and are considered innovative, creative practices. They can be studied similarly as practices imbued with meanings, values, materialities, and skills. CAST prepares you to explore these fascinating intersections and contribute to our understanding of modern culture.
