University of Nova Gorica School of Arts focuses on the development of authors, savvy in several complementary artistic fields and media – film, animation, photography, new media, contemporary art practices and hybrid conections between them. The interdisciplinary and intermedia features of these explicitly practical study programmes delivered in a quality academic environment are guranteed by a rich pallet of referenced collaborators and visiting mentors. With various mobility options, students are involved in projects and collaborations both with the local community and with the wider international social environment, which makes studying at the junction with the Italian community all the more possible.
