The bachelor is composed of [[Programs and courses|modules]] which teach you in-depth knowledge of all things to do with animation, as well as interdisciplinary artistic topics ([https://www.hslu.ch/de-ch/design-kunst/studium/studienuebergreifende-module/ida-im-bachelor/mehr-ueber-ida/ IDA]- und [https://www.hslu.ch/de-ch/hochschule-luzern/campus/isa/ ISA] modules) and [https://www.hslu.ch/de-ch/design-kunst/studium/studienuebergreifende-module/theorie/ theory]. Each semester ends with an end-of-semester presentation (SEP). Here you each show in approx. 10 minutes an entertaining summary of your work that you made during the semester, individually or in groups. The module-free weeks are used to prepare the SEP, to finish off or correct projects, or to follow up on personal interests.

Das Animationsstudium für den Bachelorabschluss an der Hochschule Luzern – Design & Kunst dauert 6 Semester, das entspricht 180 ECTS. Das Studium ist aus verschiedenen [[Programs and courses|Modulen]] zusammengesetzt, die sowohl vertiefend fachspezifisch zur Animation, wie auch interdisziplinär ([https://www.hslu.ch/de-ch/design-kunst/studium/studienuebergreifende-module/ida-im-bachelor/mehr-ueber-ida/ IDA]- und [https://www.hslu.ch/de-ch/hochschule-luzern/campus/isa/ ISA] Module) und zur (Kunst- und Film)[https://www.hslu.ch/de-ch/design-kunst/studium/studienuebergreifende-module/theorie/ Theorie] ausgerichtet sind. Jedes Semester wird von einer Semesterendpräsentation (SEP) abgeschlossen. Hier zeigt ihr in ca. 10 Minuten auf prägnante, unterhaltsame Weise einzeln oder in Gruppen eure Arbeiten die im Verlauf des Semesters entstanden sind. Die vorlesungsfreie Zeit wird zur Vorbereitung der SEP, zum Abschluss oder Korrektur von Projekten, oder dem Erarbeiten eigener, animationsnaher Interessensgebiete genutzt.
 
 
 
Man hat 6 Jahre Zeit, das Studium zu absolvieren. So besteht die Möglichkeit, ein Zwischenjahr zu machen, um ggf. Geld zu verdienen oder Lebenserfahrung zu sammeln.
 
 
 
Während des Studiums ist es ebenfalls möglich, nach Wunsch und Möglichkeit Praktika zu absolvieren oder ein Austauschsemester zu machen. Mehr dazu auf der Unterseite [[Exchange]].
 
 
 
Da ein Teil des Unterrichts in Englisch stattfinden wird, internationale Austauschstudierende zu Gast sind und darüber hinaus die Animationscommunity  international geprägt ist, sind gute Englischkenntniss von Vorteil. Wer also in dieser Beziehung noch Defizite hat, sollte sein Englisch so bald wie möglich auffrischen. (z.B. entsprechende [http://www.isa-campus.ch/ Kurse der HSLU] oder  [http://www.klubschule.ch/ Migros Klubschule]).
