Music therapy is being phased out as a master's degree program

The Central Institute for Continuing Education and Transfer at Berlin University of the Arts has offered three continuing education master's programs for many years: Sound Studies and Sonic Arts, Leadership in Digital Innovation, and our Music Therapy program. The Berlin University of the Arts is currently undergoing a process of strategic realignment, in which its continuing education programs are being structurally reorganized. This development goes hand in hand with changes in the legal and organizational framework. In particular, the adaptation of university structures to the amended Berlin Higher Education Act necessitates a reorganization of continuing education. Against this background, all existing continuing education master's programs are being phased out.

The music therapy program is therefore no longer accepting new students. The Berlin University of the Arts will ensure that all currently enrolled students can complete their studies within a reasonable period of time. Parallel to this phase-out, the Berlin University of the Arts is developing a new continuing education strategy. The aim is to offer continuing education in other formats in the future. The subject areas of our program will play an important role in this development.
