MA Choreography
*
*
Introduction
The MA Choreography programme will provide you with the opportunity to interrogate your own practice, whether you are a choreographer in the early stages of your career or an experienced dancer wishing to change direction. You will pursue your own line of enquiry and develop a critical engagement with your choreographic process through the creation of dance works.

*
Entry Requirements
You will normally have prior choreographic experience and /or have successfully completed an undergraduate degree in an appropriate or related subject; or hold an overseas award of equivalent standard (eg USA degree GPA of 3.00). English Language competency requirements also apply.

*
Programme Length
Full time: 11 months plus an independent research project

Validated by City University London

*
Programme Content
You will be able to experiment, take risks and develop an individual artistic voice. You will also gain insights into different creative practices in dance and other art forms through contact with visiting artists, while exploring the different artistic and social contexts for the creation and reception of work. You will be encouraged to create pieces in a range of settings and media, and work collaboratively with artists from other disciplines.

The taught element of the programme consists of the following modules:

Core Modules

M502 Research Methods 30 Credits
M511 Examining Practice 30 Credits
M512 Synergies and Transformations 30 Credits
M513 Research and Development 30 Credits


To complete the programme, you will also undertake an in-depth independent research project (M505 Project). This may take the form of a publicly presented major choreographic work, or works, which represent your own distinctive practice as it has developed on the programme.

Please note that technical training (technique classes) is not provided within the fee structure of the programme. However, classes are available on payment of a supplementary fee to cover direct teaching costs – please see further information Technique Training.

Alternatively evening classes offered by the Education and Community department are available.

A range of professional classes are also offered at our partner organisation Greenwich Dance, located some 15 minutes walk away.
