The mission of the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre （EAMT）is to contribute to the development of a human-centered Estonian society, the spread of a creative mindset and the preservation of the Estonian language and culture through education in the fields of music and theatre and the promotion of creative and research work.

EAMT values the preservation of the inherent values of the Estonian national culture and maintaining the academic traditions of European music and theatre education, while being open to the latest developments in the world of music and theatre.

EAMT is a public university of music and drama, offering higher education in all major fields of music and theatre through bachelor, master and doctoral programmes. Although with its approximately 700 students EAMT is the smallest among six Estonian public universities and university-level higher education institutions, internationally it can be compared to medium-sized music and theatre academies.

Bachelor programmes provide training for vocalists and instrumentalists, as well as conductors, composers, musicologists, music teachers and sound engineers. Master’s programmes also offer additional education and training in chamber music, accompaniment, contemporary improvisation and cultural management. The curricula for musicians focus on soloist, ensemble and orchestral performance or opera; music theory and history, as well as other fields in the humanities are also studied. It is also possible to obtain teaching qualifications.
