Each session takes place at 18:00, in person or online, and is intended to be an opportunity for students to deepen their knowledge and explore various areas of research such as Cinema, Visual Arts, Sound, Music, New Media Art, among others.

The PhD in Science, Technology and the Arts was established with the aim of developing a study program where artists, scientists and researchers from different backgrounds can develop multidisciplinary research in the field of artistic practices.
