Introduction

This research-focused programme allows you to study dance science within a world-renowned conservatoire. It focuses on applying research to dance practice across recreational, training, and professional settings. This programme is for anyone with prior dance experience who is interested in dance science, such as dancers, choreographers, scientists, teachers, lecturers, and health practitioners.

Course Details

The MSc Dance Science is a research-led taught programme which focuses on understanding and investigating dancers and dance practice across recreational, training, and professional settings through scientific approaches. From both a theoretical and applied perspective, the programme engages with qualitative and quantitative modes of research and practice, integrating interdisciplinary elements of dance science informed by a range of disciplines such as physiology, biomechanics, nutrition, psychology, and somatic practices.

How will I be assessed?

The range of summative and formative assessments are designed to reflect the knowledge and skills required of graduates entering the dance science sector and centre on a critical examination of dance science theory and research as applied to dance practice. Students will be assessed according to their ability to meet the learning outcomes for the module, and against any specific assessment criteria provided.

Assessment tasks include developing a project proposal, provide a learning portfolio that includes a range of learning tasks (e.g., reports, critical reviews), group project lab reports and poster presentations, a case study, and culminates with a written journal article.

Assessment modes include individual and group assessments in written, oral and practice-based presentations, in digital and/or in person contexts.

Alumni Destinations

Graduates often go on to become consultants for dance companies, training institutions and national dance organisations. They can become teachers and lecturers and go onto further study. Graduates use their dance science knowledge to inform their own practice as dancers, teachers, rehearsal directors or choreographers.
