Fields of Study in the Conservation and Restoration Degree Programme
The conservation and restoration degree programme offers three fields of study, which are structured according to material-specific and technological characteristics.
Fields of Study at a Glance
Wood
In the Bachelor's degree programme, small objects, furniture and other wooden furnishings, whose surfaces may be finished with marquetry, stains, coatings and decorative paintings, are generally examined and worked on.
In the Master's programme, the focus is on building-related room elements, such as wood panelling on walls and ceilings, wooden floors, windows, doors, stairs, chairs and wooden constructions in historical buildings.
Stone
The focus is on the classical field of natural stone in the sense of sculpture and building. Other focal points are the regionally significant materials brick and terracotta, but also "artificial stone" such as reinforced concrete sculptures as well as the coloured setting on all these materials.
Mural Painting
In addition to the defined areas of wall and ceiling painting on inorganic substrates, this includes the identification of historical architectural colours in interior and exterior areas. The subjects of mosaics and stucco complement the subject matter.
Interdisciplinary Subjects: Natural Sciences & Design
The subject area of natural sciences in conservation imparts the basic knowledge of natural sciences with regard to conservation and restoration technologies. In addition, it supports and accompanies the subjects from the field of conservation and restoration in the various fields of study.
The focus of the exercises in design theory is on acquiring the possibilities and laws of artistic design. The free handling of the material and the variable procedures of its treatment brings the essentials to light.
