Course programme

Year 1

The programme has four modules: professional development and project preparation is a lecture-based module and asks students to design a project which will be undertaken as work-based learning. The lectures reflect the issues discussed when applying for funding. The submission comprises of a full project proposal and plan of activity for the student designed project.

Creative and critical enquiry is a research module giving you the scope to explore any sector-specific issue or topic.

Professional practice provides the platform to reflect on and develop the skills you need to work as a freelance performance practitioner. Initially lecture-based, the module explores techniques and skills, concluding with a student-devised performance.

Work-based learning comprises of tutorials and lectures around the student project activity. This research project will be student-led and should be a platform for the type of work you may want to do once you have graduated.
