Why study Bachelor of Performing Arts?

The degree is designed for students who wish to focus on theoretical and practical studies in the performing arts.

The course provides a balance of practical, theoretical, critical and contextual studies. Students take part in cooperative productions, working in two or more performing art forms, for example music theatre or dance-drama productions and sound sculpture exhibitions.

The degree has a greater focus on practical, creative and performing arts studies than the usual Bachelor of Arts and takes a broader approach than the more specialised Bachelor of Music. It offers performing arts majors and minors in drama and theatre studies, music and visual culture. A minor is also available in dance.
