In 1990, the Faculty of Arts was re-established in Timișoara, after an 11-year hiatus. The university's artistic education would become part of the Western University, an institution with a strong humanistic tradition.The Faculty of Arts and Design is actively involved in collaborations and partnerships with cultural institutions, art galleries, museums, non-governmental organizations and creative industry companies, both nationally and internationally. These partnerships offer students unique opportunities for internships, professional development and international exposure.
