Who is this course for?

The Dance Professional pathway is for experienced professionals in the fields of dance, performing arts or humanities, such as dancers, choreographers, visual artists, musicians or theatre-makers working with the body, academics, teachers and somatic practitioners.

MFA applicants should demonstrate their capacity to undertake self-directed research and propose a project that warrants the depth and breadth afforded by an extended time frame. The choice between an MA or an MFA programme of study will depend upon prior experience and future aspirations.

For MFA:

Applicants will also be required to submit an initial project proposal, outlining the following:

  • The reasons they wish to carry out an independent project over one academic year
  • Their suitability for extended independent research in the context of an MFA Creative Practice
  • The nature of their intended research and a draft projected timeline with indicated outputs of research (which is understandably subject to change)
