Duration
3 Years
Plays, acting (stage and screen), contemporary drama, theatre and screen history are central to this course. You'll also get to explore theatre production disciplines such as applied theatre, costume, directing, settings and marketing.
You'll learn through a mixture of practical workshops and classroom-based theory. You'll be assessed via presentations, coursework or take-away papers (no formal exams). Your Year 2 arts project - with input from an external company - and an optional Year 3 professional placement allow you to apply a real world approach to your studies. All modules in Year 3 are optional, so you can structure your learning to your own strengths.
You will also work closely with other students within the Drama and Theatre Arts, particularly BA(Hons) Acting and Theatre Arts, with a specialist pathway at each level.
