Creative Practices
Creative Practices encourages students to develop practical understanding and experience of the creative processes of performance, composition and production in the creative and performing arts. Students will develop technologically-enhanced work in one or more strands of dance, music, theatre and Maori arts.
Creative Practices is available as a major for the BMCT. Creative Practices may also be taken as a second major or as a supporting subject within other undergraduate degrees, subject to academic approval of the Faculty or School of Studies in which the student is enrolled.
To complete a major in Creative Practices, students must gain 120 points above 100 level in Creative Practices, including CRPC200, CRPC300 and at least 40 further points above 200 level. As well as the 100 level compulsory papers for the BMCT, it is recommended that students intending to major in Creative Practices include papers in the first year of their programme of study that meet prerequisites for study at 200 level and above.
There are four pathways within the Creative Practice major: Dance, Maori Arts, Music and Theatre. For advice on the papers comprising these pathways, please contact the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.
