The master’s course

 The master’s course is essentially project-based. The following modules can be combined as required, depending on the specialization chosen. The individual modules are described in the programme of courses common to all the partners using the Campus.

     * toolbox modules

    * seminars and projects

    * project modules (individual)

    * master’s degree thesis

Toolbox modules

The purpose of these modules is to inculcate key skills and a multi-disciplinary approach, and so make the vast range of courses on the Campus available to all theatre studies students.  They include common courses (theory, methodology, know-how), blocks of courses, individual courses, seminars, etc.

Seminars and projects

These consist of individual subject-based blocks or major cross-disciplinary theatrical productions supervised by established practitioners. For example: staging by a director whose contribution is mainly aesthetic; project supervised by an artist active in various fields.

Project modules (individual)

Modules based on individual projects, developed and finalized with the help of teachers, but with the student taking the initiative.

Master’s degree thesis

The master’s course concludes with the writing of a thesis relating to a practical artistic project or a piece of theoretical research. The thesis relates to the student’s chosen specialization and always comprises a practical and a theoretical part. The individual objectives set by the student (artistic or “scientific” goals) define the scope of the two parts. The thesis may be undertaken as part of “Project modules (individual)” or “Seminars and projects”.
