The University of Leeds is one of the UK’s top universities, at the
centre of one of Britain’s most cosmopolitan and student-friendly
cities. It has more than 32,000 students from over 100 different
countries. Established in 1904, the University is a member of the
Russell Group, which is formed by 20 of the country’s top research
universities.
The University has invested heavily to provide students with first-class facilities, including modern, well-equipped lecture theatres, an internationally acclaimed University library, extensive computing resources, a well-equipped language centre and one of the biggest and best Students’ Unions in the country.
The School of Performance and Cultural Industries
The School is one of the most exciting and innovative centres for the study of performance and the cultural industries in the UK. Its move into brand new facilities at the heart of the Leeds campus in 2007 has consolidated its status as a major force in its field both in Britain and internationally – a superb place to study, to create and to launch a future career.
What makes us so special?
It’s not just that we do theatre and performance – though we do, both practically and analytically. We’re usually full to bursting with new productions, both off campus and on.
It’s not just that we do research – though we do, at the very cutting edge, engaging our staff and postgraduate students in an enormously wide range of key projects from performance practices to new technology, from cultural enterprise to cultural policy. Our students take what they learn and practise here, and apply it across the breadth of the cultural industries and beyond.
It’s not just that we think globally – though we do. We believe that performance and the cultural industries must be seen in their international, as well as national and local, context. Our staff have international reputations, and we attract students from all parts of the globe, including China, India, USA, Europe, the Middle-East, Nigeria, Taiwan and Hong Kong.
It’s not just that we work beyond the confines of the university – though we do. We have excellent partnerships with many leading arts and cultural organisations - for example, Opera North (with whom the University has a formal partnership), West Yorkshire Playhouse, The National Coal Mining Museum for England and the BBC. Our students benefit from this in many ways, from workshops and collaborations to industry placements.
What really makes us distinctive, we believe, is the School’s philosophy. We are passionate not only about performance and the cultural industries, but also about the role they play in the wider cultural and creative life of society.
We are interested in how performance both reflects and challenges culture. Performance, whether it is found in the theatre, on the street, in the mass media or in the local community, harnesses the emotions, engages the intellect and develops creativity. In contemporary society, we are all performers, critics, consumers and audiences.
The staff in the School have research, professional and teaching expertise across all aspects of performance and culture, from the process of the performer and the production ensemble through a broad range of compositional and performance practices – acting, choreography, scenography, scriptwriting, dramaturgy - to arts education, performance management, cultural entrepreneurship and creative industries policy. Each of these distinctive areas benefits from productive dialogue with the others.
The integration of theory and practice lies at the core of our activities and is manifest in our programmes, in our research projects and in our interactions with industry, and with the wider community.
Whether you are just completing your undergraduate degree or whether you have years of experience behind you, postgraduate study will take you to the next level of understanding in your field. It will consolidate and challenge your previous experiences, develop your practical skills, and introduce you to new ways of conceptualising, analysing and evaluating.
Postgraduate taught courses
The School’s ground-breaking courses include core research skills and subject specific modules, and there is ample opportunity for students to work in an inter-disciplinary way with those taking parallel degrees, as well as with off-campus organisations and communities.
The Masters degrees incorporate a dissertation or equivalent major research project,. which may be practice-based. All MA students have the opportunity to rub shoulders with industry professionals and academic specialists from the UK and the rest of the world.
Applications are welcome from performance professionals, educators, cultural industry professionals, independent entrepreneurs and recent performance/arts/cultural studies graduates. All programmes can be studied in full and part time modes.
