Institution Notes:
The National Institute of Arts and Cultural Studies was founded in 1959. It consists of four schools: • Graduate School of Music and Dance, with three departments: music and musicology, African music, and the conservatoire (the performance and music education program); • School of Fine Arts, Architecture and Design; • Higher School of Theatre, Film and Audiovisual; • Higher School of Tourism, Craft and Cultural Action which includes the training of librarians and archivists. There are two research centres - the Centre of Music Education Research and the Arts and Culture Research Centre. In 2013, with assistance from the Government of Switzerland, there was a refurbishment of the room holding the Institute's instrument collection. The maximum age for entry is 24 years. The Institute offers programs of further education for interested members of the local community. Language of instruction is French.
