Course Description
The professionalisation of the performing arts has been a national priority for the sector for the last few years. This multi and interdisciplinary undergraduate programme responds to this priority and gives learners the opportunity to work hands-on in creative environments through joint collaboration with industry stakeholders to manage and produce performing arts projects for both artistic and commercial practices. According to their chosen study-area/s (management, acting, dance, music, light, sound, costumes, set, props) learners acquire a broad range of skills and techniques focusing on performing arts productions, through critical analysis, research and practical assignments.
