The Goetheanum Studium department is part of the General Anthroposophical Section, whose main research focus is Anthroposophy itself.

The General Anthroposophical Section is one of the eleven sections that constitute the School of Spiritual Science, which was founded at the Christmas Conference in 1923 together with the General Anthroposophical Society. The central task of the Section is anthroposophy itself, its essence and development - and the "problem of the human being" (Martin Buber) as a physical, soul and spiritual being.

No previous education is required for study at the Goetheanum, apart from a good command of the course language. The number of spots is limited.

Acceptance into the study program is contingent upon submitting the application form and attending an admissions interview. The purpose of this interview is to assess whether the course meets your expectations and is a good fit for you. Prior to the start of classes, students are requested to review and sign an agreement outlining the terms and conditions.
