Bachelor in Performing and Fine Arts (Associate of Arts)

Engaging with the arts—whether through performance, historical inquiry, or creative composition—requires both technical discipline and a deep understanding of cultural context. The Associate of Arts degree in Performing and Fine Arts offers a foundational two-year pathway for students to immerse themselves in music, art history, film, theatre, and creative writing. By balancing theoretical study with practical performance opportunities, this programme prepares students for further academic specialization or professional artistic practice.

Transferable Foundations

Designed with flexibility as a priority, this 60-credit credential is built to transfer seamlessly into the third year of a four-year bachelor’s degree at major research universities. Students benefit from instruction by professional artists and can join vocal or instrumental ensembles to refine their craft in a collaborative environment. For those looking to gain professional experience during their studies, the optional Co-operative Education Program provides the opportunity to alternate academic terms with paid, full-time work in the arts sector, helping to build a professional resumé and industry connections before graduation.
