Possibility to get a PhD in the Arts
Zuyd Hogeschool, Maastricht University and the Jan van Eyck Academie joined forces to create the possibility to get a PhD in the Arts. MERIAN (the Maastricht Experimental Research In and through the Arts Network) will be launched in the upcoming academic year and the PhD students focus their artistic research on the art and science of the collaborating academia in the area and the relevance for the Euregion.
To obtain a doctoral degree, PhD candidates, must conduct an artistic research, write a thesis and defend it before a committee. They must combine art and science. The research mainly focuses on current urgent matters and social issues that are relevant to the location of the part-taking educational institutes in the Euregion.
Doctoral students from all art and scientific disciplines can conduct PhD research in MEDIAN style in "Maastricht style". This "Maastricht style" is problem-based, methodologically innovative and focuses on interdisciplinary themes that consists of using both art and science.
