Departments
Artistic development is an ongoing activity in all departments at the faculty, and particularly in two of them:
The Norwegian Artistic Research Programme
The Norwegian Artistic Research Programme has the overall national responsibility for stimulating and focusing artistic development in Norway. State funds are channeled to the program. They are allocated through national competition through two different programs, Project Programme (2010-) and Fellowship Programme (2003-).
The competition is tough, artists from different disciplines all over the country compete for funds allocated through the programs.
