Jan Dlugosz University in Czestochowa offers this bachelor's program in Arts, focused on Painting, taught in English over six semesters in the city of Częstochowa. Known as the Painting Profile program, its educational concept combines tradition and innovation, aiming to build the knowledge, skill, and competence that let graduates identify their own place within the broader art and cultural world. The program is organized around the Dalton System, an educational approach that gives students room to make conscious choices about their studies and to develop a responsible, self-directed posture toward their own artistic development. Ongoing development of both the program and its faculty is intended to support the degree's long-term growth and relevance. As with the university's related master's program, this approach is meant to prepare graduates for artistic or scientific activity after graduation, as well as for identifying their own position in the workforce, whether as an employee or as a self-employed practitioner. At the bachelor's level, painting study typically begins with foundational work in drawing, color, composition, and materials, before moving toward more independent studio projects. Students build technical skill alongside a developing personal approach to the medium, supported by critique and exposure to art history and contemporary painting practice. Graduates of bachelor's-level painting programs commonly continue toward master's study in painting or a related fine-arts field, or move directly into work as practicing artists, art teachers, or studio assistants. Częstochowa's location places the program within Poland's broader network of art academies and university art faculties, connecting students to a national community of painters and art educators working across both traditional and contemporary approaches to the medium.
