About

The Department of Performing Arts, Theatre Studies and Music holds the vision of providing ‘Integrity through Aesthetic performance’. Its mission is to inspire and mentor the birth and sustained growth of artists who, through cultural ethos, will embody respect, humanity, and discipline. The Performing Arts are a universal language that goes beyond the physical and geographical boundaries of the world. They bring people closer to themselves and a glimpse into the lived experiences of others, and the shared experiences of humanity. The primary aim of the programme is to introduce the students to the possibilities of the art form and help them to gain an integrated sense of it through the application of theory via practical means.
Being aware of the cultural and economic climates of today, the Department of Performing Arts adopts a holistic approach to its education. As such, three triple-major programmes are on offer, which combines Psychology and English Studies:

  • Bachelor of Arts (Music-Western Classical, Psychology/Honours) 
  • Bachelor of Arts (Performing Arts, Psychology/Honours)
  • Bachelor of Arts (Theatre Studies, Psychology/Honours)
  • Bachelor of Arts (Performing Arts, Creative Media/Honours)
  • Bachelor of Arts (Theatre Studies, Creative Media/Honours) 
  • Bachelor of Arts (Music-Western Classical, Creative Media/Honours)

This symbiotic combination helps instill an ensemble spirit and inspires and necessitates a quest for artistic excellence. Each of the majors is carefully tailored to work in tandem with the other two departments. The disciplines foster skills required for multiple career paths and a varied spectrum of Higher Education possibilities.
