Careers in Performing Arts Performing arts degrees are generally either practice-based (involving a great deal of actual performance) or academic, which combines practical work with analysis of the background of the subject. Teaching is therefore likely to be delivered through a mix of practical workshops and lectures. Most performing arts degrees provide an overall foundation spanning various disciplines, before asking students to choose a particular pathway. Universities may offer dedicated degrees for each of the main three branches of performing arts – music, dance and drama. You may also be able to specialize in a more obscure art form during your degree (read the ‘specializations’ tab for more information). Take a close look at course descriptions to see if they sound right for you and your interests. At undergraduate level, most performing arts degrees are three or four years long; this will depend on where you study. Entry requirements You’re likely to be asked to attend an audition.

BioScience Careers What to do with a degree in Drama Studies A degree in drama won't automatically guarantee you a place in the limelight, but it has certainly helped some household names, including Dame Judi Dench, who graduated with first-class honours in the subject, and comedians Matt Lucas, David Walliams and Dawn French. Even for those who don't make it on to the stage or big screen, a drama degree can open doors to equally rewarding roles, such as being an arts consultant, set designer or visual artist. While drama school allows students to hone their acting technique, a drama degree takes a more theoretical approach, covering topics such as script-writing and theatre design, giving graduates a thorough grounding in the subject and widening their career options in a highly competitive field. What skills have you gained? Confidence and self-presentation, analytical skills, self-discipline and an ability (hopefully) to handle criticism. What jobs can you do? Postgraduate study?
