Christian Ernsten and Zuyd University lector Ties van de Werff receive UM-Zuyd collaboration grant
Christian Ernsten and Ties van de Werff have received a €29,000 grant to develop a shared UM-Zuyd learning space in the context of MERIAN – an already existing collaboration between these institutions and the Jan van Eyck Academy.
The project aims to strengthen the knowledge-chain between bachelor-master-PD-PhD in artistic research. More specific it has two main aims: 1) creat a shared learning environment, where students and teachers from both institutions can fruitfully collaborate and learn from each other; and 2) create a better view of the enablers and barriers that come into play when collaborating on different institutional levels.
MERIAN PhD and Professional Doctorate (PD) candidates and members of MERIAN’s steering committee will contribute to the development and teaching of the shared learning environment.
