The isdaT— Toulouse Higher Institute of Arts and Design is a public higher education institution dedicated to art, design, graphic design, music and dance. Each field gives rise to specific courses and diplomas and may involve collaborative projects, depending on the course. Initial training, continuing education, courses open to everyone, all of our training courses respond to the social and educational importance of developing creation and transmission in our rapidly changing society. 

The isdaT trains artists and creators in several fields, making this public higher education institution a unique environment in France for artistic and educational dialogue. Offering future authors, performers and teachers specialized courses in music, dance, design, graphic design and arts, the isdaT maintains a balance between practice and cultural and theoretical context. This equips students with the skills needed to flourish and integrate into professional and social life.

The isdaT also supports the importance of collaborative and interdisciplinary practices by deploying the knowledge and expertise which is increasingly applied in contemporary cultures. Creators are encouraged to “do it themselves” but also to “know how to do with others”, regardless of their practices.

The isdaT belongs to a vast local, national and international network that gives it a great capacity for partnerships. Students are therefore presented with support and mobilization of the highest standard. With the public courses, the isdaT permits individuals of all ages to practice and develop their skills in the field of plastic arts. In addition, the isdaT offers continuing education, primarily in the fields of music and dance, with plans to develop new offers in other fields. As it evolves, the isdaT prepares its students for the professions and challenges of the future, while being strongly anchored in its rich history.
