IN.TUNE is being established to address the challenges higher music education faces and the music and cultural sector face. Rapid technological developments and changes in the conditions for artists require educational institutions to explore how they can provide programs that prepare students for a constantly evolving professional life.
"All experiences, including the collaboration on the EUA application, demonstrate that we share many of the same challenges as other European institutions. It is beneficial to work together to create new opportunities in teaching, artistic development, and research," stated principal Astrid Kvalbein.
She emphasized the significant differences among educational institutions from Belgrade and Bucharest to Barcelona and Vienna, Helsinki and Oslo. She viewed the collaboration as an additional potential for learning and sharing.
