Administrative Assistant Monika Lederich 905-688-5550, extension 3214 Thistle west 135 http://www.brocku.ca/dramatic· arts 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; a BA (Pass) degree as well as minor in Dramatic Arts. 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 programs 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). 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.
