The Department of Dramatic Arts (DART), part of the School of Fine and Performing Arts, addresses the study, application and interrogation of the discipline as cultural and educational practice.

The Department of Dramatic Arts offers four-year programs of study with streams in Drama in Education and Society, Dramatic Literature, and Theatre, leading to a BA Honours in Dramatic Arts; a four-year (20 credit) BA with a Major in Theatre degree; as well as a BA three year (Pass) degree. The Department also offers both a Concentration and a Certificate program in Drama in Education and Society for non-DART majors. All three areas are united under one goal: to integrate theory and practice so as to provide students with a broad base of education combining research, practice and creative development. Technical, design and performance skills and practice are integrated in various ways with the study of critical theory, theatre history, dramaturgy and dramatic literature.

Dramatic Arts offers two concurrent BA (Honours)/BEd over five years. See calendar entry under Education - BA (Honours)/BEd (Intermediate/Senior) and Education BA Integrated Studies (Honours) (Junior/Intermediate).

Projects include two major productions, as well as various minor productions and events, such as the School of Fine and Performing Arts Spring Festival.

The Dramatic Arts Co-op program combines academic and work terms over a four-year period. Students spend one year in an academic setting studying the fundamentals of dramatic arts prior to taking the first work placement. In addition to the current fees for courses in academic study terms, Co-op students are assessed an annual administrative fee (see the Schedule of Fees).

Students admitted to one of the Dramatic Arts Co-op programs must follow the appropriate Co-op program schedule for their degree as outlined below. Failure to adhere to the schedule could result in removal from the Dramatic Arts Co-op program. Eligibility to continue is based on the student's major average and non-major average. A student with a minimum 70 percent major average and a minimum 60 percent non-major average will be permitted to continue. A student with a major average lower than 70 percent will not be permitted to continue in the Dramatic Arts Co-op program.

The Dramatic Arts Co-op program designation will be awarded to those students who have honours standing and who have successfully completed a minimum of twelve months of Co-op work experience.

Language Requirement for Humanities Majors

Students in the Department of Dramatic Arts are required to complete one credit in a language other than English. Where half credit courses are used to fulfill the requirement, both half credits must be in the same language. It is recommended that students fulfill this requirement by year 2. (Theatre stream students are urged to fulfill this requirement in year 1).

Program Notes

Students must satisfy context requirements before year 3.
A minimum of 60 percent in both DART 1F93 and DART 1F98 or 1F99 is required in order to proceed as a major in any of the Dramatic Arts streams.
Year 3 courses are normally restricted to students with at least three 2(alpha)00 credits or permission of the instructor.
Enrolment in some courses may be restricted due to space limitations.
Students seeking admission to the Honours program must have a minimum 70 percent overall average in their DART courses.
Students wishing to pursue a career in teaching at the high school level must plan their first year context courses and electives carefully in order to attain the required three courses in a single area of study outside Dramatic Arts as a second teachable. This applies particularly to students in the Drama in Education stream, due to their limited number of electives.
ENGL 2Q92, 2Q93, 2Q94, 2Q95, 2Q96, 2Q97 or 2V91 may be taken as year 2 DART credits in the dramatic literature stream.
Students, in the Drama in Education and Society stream only, who elect to take DART 1F99 must take DART 2P01 and 2P02 in year 2.
In all 20 credit degree programs, at least 12 credits must be numbered 2(alpha)00 or above, six of which must be numbered 2(alpha)90 or above and of these, three must be numbered 3(alpha)90 or above. In all 15 credit degree programs, at least seven credits must be numbered 2(alpha)00 or above, three of which must be numbered 2(alpha)90 or above.
