The fundamental objective of the program is to provide advanced training in research of a constructionist nature in fields related to the Arts and Education.
As the program is founded upon lines of research linked to proven research groups and current research projects, goals deriving from those of the said research groups and projects will be secondary aims of the program.
Thus, the lines of research in the program include the following specific objectives.
The specific objectives of the doctoral program are:
To share knowledge, methodologies and research methods linked to the lines of research in the program, in such a way that students can carry out their own thesis projects and form part of a research community.
To participate in an environment favouring debate about the epistemological and methodological issues in the research projects linked to the preparation of students' doctoral theses.
To construct research projects able to contribute to the rethinking of education in and through the arts on the basis of a critical understanding of artistic discourse in the context of cultural and educational institutions (schools, universities, museums, etc.) and the community.
To build links with Spanish and international networks and research groups working in a similar way to the lines of research pursued by the teaching staff on the program, in order to foster student mobility and the carrying out of research projects in a European and international context.
