The École Nationale Supérieure d'Art et de Design de Limoges is one of ten national art schools under the supervision of the French Ministry of Culture. It awards two diplomas in Art and Object Design: the DNA (equivalent to a bachelor's degree), and the DNSEP (equivalent to a master's degree). It also offers two specializations: ceramics and contemporary jewelry.
Equipped with cutting-edge technology and a multidisciplinary teaching team, it combines art and technique, know-how and research. Every year, it invites some fifty artists, theorists and researchers to take part in conferences and workshops. This network of knowledge is extended internationally through exchanges with China, Finland, Portugal and Japan.
