Introduction

The MA Choreography offer a stimulating environment in which to explore and develop your choreographic practice and expertise.

Whether you’re in the early stages of your career or an experienced dance artist, these programmes present opportunities to engage with contemporary ideas, concepts, and propositions within the choreographic field.

How will I be assessed?

Assessment is through a variety of modes which evaluate theory and practice, related to the realisation of choreographic ideas and practice as research.

Assessment modes include:

• showings of work in progress with chaired question and answer forums
• Presentation with an open Q and A and supplementary document
• the realisation of speculative research practice as a performed event

Each test the ability of the student to develop as an independent, self-critical, investigative artist, with the ability to critically reflect, synthesise and apply knowledge and understanding across both theory and practice and cater for different modes of learning.
