Folkwang

Career Service

The transition from studying to working is a special phase in the development of artists. This is why the Folkwang University of the Arts has set up a Career Service. It supports the university's goal of training excellent personalities who will take on social responsibility as artists and academics and at the same time be optimally prepared for the constantly changing requirements of the artistic professions. The Career Service thus builds a bridge between studies and career on the basis of the Folkwang idea. The Career Service takes the specific framework conditions, questions and requirements of these artistic professions as the starting point for its work and develops tailor-made offers for students and alumni of the Folkwang University of the Arts on this basis. It also creates a variety of opportunities to become part of an interdisciplinary artistic network consisting of students, who are always already involved in artistic practice, teachers and alumni. The Folkwang Career Service's offer consists of three pillars
