Comments about Bachelor of Arts (Performing Arts) - On Campus - Perth - WESTERN AUSTRALIA - Western Australia

  • Objectives
    A flexible programme for students who have completed a vocational education and training or associate degree programme in the performing arts (Advanced Diploma of Performing Arts from WAAPA or equivalent Associate Diploma from other institutions) and who have achieved distinction within their principal skills' training practice. In practical terms, the course aims to provide a pathway for students who wish to pursue further studies in the creative arts or to access the profession from another perspective, usually as alternatives to mainstream practices. The course develops graduates with skills in communication, imaginative and critical thinking, problem solving, research and analysis and the initiative for greater flexibility to pursue careers in contemporary multi‑arts environments. Through the projects that students will develop, produce and market as part of the course, it is expected that an appropriate understanding and awareness of artistic processes as research will be achieved.
