The degrees Diplom and Magister are equivalent to the internationally recognized degrees Master of Fine Arts (M.F.A.) and Master of Arts (M.A.). For first-year students, the study programme begins with a general orientation year. At the end of the third academic year they take the intermediate examination and at the end of the fifth academic year they take the final examination. Students with a suitable Bachelor’s degree are usually admitted directly into the fourth year of study and take the final examination at the end of the fifth year. Admission to the first, second or third academic year is also possible.
