International Master / Joint Master Degree
RE:ANIMA is an International two-year master's programme in Animation, as a collaboration between LUCA Campus Genk / C-mine (Belgium), IADT (Ireland) and Lusófona University (Portugal). RE:ANIMA explores all fields of animation, from fiction narrative to documentary and experimental uses of animation in expanded fields.
Curriculum
The programme has an original mobility scheme that takes the students on an educational and creative journey from Belgium, where they will explore the foundations of narrative animation filmmaking, to Ireland, where they will strengthen their technical and artistic animation skills and experiment with the craft, to Portugal, where they will use the tools of animation to depict and reflect upon reality, using the processes of animation as a form of documenting the world and act upon it.
Throughout the four semesters, the students will acquire differentiated competences, explore diverse methods and approaches, while at the same time working on their graduation animation projects. These projects can take the form of fiction, documentary or experimental animation of a various nature that combine techniques and multidisciplinary approaches.
About LUCA School of Arts
LUCA School of Arts is the only University of Applied Sciences (and Arts ) in Flanders exclusively dedicated to art and design, making it unique in the region. As a School of Arts LUCA combines the strengths and expertise of five renowned Flemish higher education institutions for art and design, spread across Brussels, Genk, Ghent and Leuven. LUCA also gives form to the associated Faculty of Arts of the KU Leuven which is an intensive collaboration between LUCA School of Arts and KU Leuven. Whereas LUCA, as a college, is responsible for bachelor and master degrees in the arts, KU Leuven, as a university, is authorized for doctorates. Artistic research is therefore situated at a crossroads, which explains the faculty's associated status. It is an "in-between space", in which the assets of the School of Arts and the Research University reinforce each other. LUCA participates as such on the open day of the KU Leuven. LUCA will be presenting its even full-English MA programmes on its campuses in Brussels, Genk, Ghent and Leuven.

Kwaliteit is de drijfveer van LUCA
Als de grondhouding van het beleidsplan inhoudt dat ‘kwaliteit onze drijfveer’ is, en dat elk aspect van het beleid hieraan kan worden getoetst, dan wil LUCA ontegensprekelijk een sterke kwaliteitscultuur uitbouwen en voeden: een cultuur die vertrekt vanuit vertrouwen in mensen met talent en expertise, en die gericht is op waarderen, inspireren en verbeteren.
Het formele kwaliteitskader voor opleidingen binnen LUCA kreeg de naam KOPERA wat staat voor: Kritisch de Kwaliteit van Opleidingen met Peers in Eigen Regie Analyseren.
LUCA vertrekt voor KOPERA vanuit een visie op kwaliteitszorg die vertrekt vanuit vertrouwen en gericht is op waarderen, inspireren en verbeteren.
Tijdens de zesjarige KOPERA-cyclus ontvangt elke opleiding een panel van kritische vrienden die de invulling van de kwaliteitskenmerken nagaan en bekijken hoe de opleiding bijdraagt tot het algemene LUCA-beleid.
Het sluitstuk van KOPERA is de uiteindelijke borging van de opleidingskwaliteit. De kernvraag daarbij luidt: "heeft de opleiding een goede kwaliteitscultuur die de ‘plan-do-check-act’-cirkel volgt?"
Van elke opleiding publiceert LUCA een kwaliteitsfiche. Je kan deze terugvinden op de pagina 'Kwaliteitszorg'.
