Detailed programme by subject

This specialization should allow students to build on the theoretical and practical knowledge they gained in the core curriculum activities. In addition to a further practical module, they are given the opportunity to learn about art, literature and cultural management, since people who work in the theatre nowadays are often required to wear several hats: director, dramatist, manager, set designer, communications officer and writer. In addition to their professional focus, the student will complete professional placements which will be suggested in the optional courses.

Note: If some of the activities included in the elective courses are also included in the core curriculum or in the specialization, the overlap may not exceed 6 credits with each of these headings. For example: students in the specialized field may not choose LTHEA2255 or 2152 as electives. Didactic students can only choose one of these courses (max. overlap 6 credits). Please note that students must take at least one internship to obtain the required number of credits.

What is a preparatory module?

It is a set of supplementary classes (courses, practical works, seminars, etc.) from the first cycle (see the non-exhaustive list below). The complementary module (maximum 60 credits) is tailor-made by the jury according to the student's educational background and added to the Master’s programme in order to acquire fundamental knowledge to then pursue the 120 credits of the Master’s programme.

The preparatory module linked to the Master [120] in Performing Arts has a double objective: on the one hand, it aims to provide students with knowledge relating to the history of culture (philosophy, sociology, literature, theatre, arts); on the other hand, it offers an initiation to the specificity of academic discourse and methodology. The acquisition of this knowledge and know-how will enable students to follow the master's courses with success. This is why the students concerned by this complementary module will follow the courses of this module from the first year of the Master's programme: the jury will offer them a tailor-made timetable without time conflicts combining these courses with some of the Master's courses. Students will have the possibility to call upon the faculty's pedagogical advisors to help them acquire these courses from different undergraduate programmes.
