  Course Content
  
  A unique collaboration between The University of Nottingham and local professional theatres, our MA programmes offer opportunities to follow either practice-based or research-based pathways in the field of theatre research and dramaturgic practice.
  
  As well as receiving research-skills-training as part of the degree, students will have the opportunity to explore a diverse range of practical and theatrical issues relating to drama and performance, investigating theatre in its political, cultural and historical context.
  
  Course Structure
  
  This course can be taken over 1 year, full-time (September to September) or part-time over 2 to 3 years.
  
  The MA consists of taught modules totalling 120 credits (which are taken during the autumn and spring semesters) and a 60-credit dissertation module (undertaken over the summer period).
  
  Full-time students normally take 60 credits of taught modules in each semester; part-time students normally take 30 credits.
  
  All taught modules are assessed by written work of between 3,000 words (for a 15 credit module) and 6,000 words (for a 30 credit module), which is set towards the end of the semester in which the module is taught.
  
  The dissertation module is assessed by written work of 12,000-15,000 words.
