Skills

An experience like no other.

This unique two-year course will engender an appreciation of dance that is comparative, crosscultural, applied and embodied.

The programme provides practical skills in:

formal analysis of movement
motion capture
documentation
evaluation of dances

You will develop an appreciation of dance that is comparative, cross-cultural, applied, and embodied.

The School is home to the internationally recognised Centre for Research in Arts and Creative Exchange, which aims to interrogate what arts research is and can be in the current climate, and to lead, invent and innovate on how research is conducted. Through seminars, forums and conferences involving staff and international guests, the Centre supports a compelling research culture.

We have been ranked number one in the UK for the impact of our research in dance (Research Excellence Framework 2021).

For the rest of the first academic year, students are divided between NTNU Trondheim and the University of Szeged, Hungary, and then spend their third semester in France, and the fourth and final semester at the University of Roehampton.
