Arts, performance, history, literature, languages studies, practice-based research and research creation, practice-based workshops, residencies, scenography, installation, collaborative production
Reach program is a training course created as an academic minor, built for French and foreign students desiring to become researchers, in order to provide them with a training in practice based research and research creation. REACH offers an unprecedented cross-disciplinary training among arts, history, literature and languages studies. This training course will complete the existing master’s degrees with experimental forms of collaborative work (exhibitions, films, performances, digital museums, creative writing…) which will enable a wider exchange of knowledge and know-how between the university and society.
How to apply
Students should first be enrolled in one of the Master’s degree or Engineering curriculum listed below :* Courses will be taught in French.
