The Bachelor of Performing Arts program is currently being redesigned and is temporarily unavailable.
This distinctive BPA degree-completion program allows students to earn their bachelor's degree in just one additional year. Stay informed about the program's relaunch by signing up for our contact list below.
Building on prior training or existing performance experience, the BPA immerses students in the artistic, conceptual, technical, cultural, and practical dimensions of performance creation across various disciplines.
Through academic study and studio practice, culminating in a final performance project, the program teaches students how to develop and maintain an independent creative practice as both artists and producers.
