Presentation

This doctoral programme is the only one in Spain in the field of Didactics of plastic expression, and it enables a quality training programme to be delivered which, by responding to an existing social demand, will enable the development of research projects investigating the varied links between the arts and education in visual culture, heritage, museums and art centres, community projects, and social inclusion in educational and psycho-social fields. Also explore the arts-based teaching methodologies and arts-based research methodologies. At the same time, this allows us to investigate ethical and critical perspectives of feminism, ecology and the multiculturalism in the intersection between the arts and education. In Girona, this doctoral degree views the arts from an intermediate and holistic perspective, and include music, dance, literature and illustration, movement and the visual and spatial arts, as well as aesthetic practice, professions and craftsmanships.

This doctoral programme is linked to the Joint master in “Arts and Education: a constructionist approach” and the joint doctoral degree in “Arts and Education”:

Regarding educational activities, the School of Doctoral Studies organises courses, seminars and other cross-disciplinary educational activities (soft skills) directed at research training and assisting with the writing and presentation of the doctoral thesis. We ask that the courses be given in English as our language of choice, although Catalan is the language most frequently used. They are generally 10-hour courses or seminars.
