Education
The animation bachelor program at the Lucerne School of Art, Film & Design has a total duration of 6 semesters, equal to 180 ECTS. The bachelor is composed of modules which teach you in-depth knowledge of all things to do with animation. We teach in English. Further on You can choose interdisciplinary artistic topics (+Colabor, +Reflect), ISA modules and theory (+Focus). Some of the interdiscioplinary modules are in German, others in English.
You can take up to 6 years to finish your studies. This allows for the possibility of a gap year to do long-term internships, take on jobs, earn money or just collect other life experience.
During your studies it is also possible to do an internship or an exchange in the 4th semester. Read more about that on our page: Exchange.
