L12 Doctor of Philosophy | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Doctor of Philosophy (Performing Arts) is a three-year full-time research program for students with substantial experience in the arts industry/ profession. The course provides an opportunity for original, highly accomplished practitioners, performers and artists who aspire towards a more extensive research and creative profile. The course is available in part-time mode in specific circumstances. Although this is a discrete award relating to the performing arts, opportunities will exist for cross-disciplinary study through joint supervision of projects.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Applicants should meet at least one of the following entry criteria:
· A Master of Arts in a discipline relevant to the proposed research; · An Honours degree (1st Class or 2A) in a discipline relevant to the proposed research.
Consideration will also be given to applicants with other relevant and equivalent degrees.
All candidates will be required to submit a portfolio of work and attend an interview and/or audition (where appropriate).
For their practical work, students will design, direct or produce a major arts project, culminating in a performance, installation or exhibition. Working in a contemporary arts environment, in collaboration with other students from other arts disciplines, students will be asked to research, devise and produce new works of art or approaches to arts practice. It is expected that this activity will be a contemporary expression of arts practice and could frequently be an exploratory work spanning and integrating art forms. Students will combine the analytical, creative and technical experiences developed throughout the course. Major project work will be evaluated by a panel of three staff, with at least two of the panel being external to the University.
COURSE STRUCTURE The course is available by both full-time and part-time study on Mount Lawley campus.
