Bachelor in Acting & Performing Arts

Acting & Performing Arts at Youngsan University trains students in the practical craft of performance for stage and screen. Coursework typically covers acting technique, voice and movement training, script analysis, and rehearsal practice, alongside coursework on theater and film history that gives students context for the performance traditions they study. Students usually work on scenes and full productions throughout the program, building experience in front of an audience or camera while receiving instructor feedback on technique and interpretation. Many programs in this field also cover audition preparation and the practical realities of pursuing a performing career, since acting work is often project-based and requires ongoing self-marketing. Graduates commonly pursue roles as stage actors, film and television actors, voice actors, or move into related fields such as directing, casting, or drama education, with performance training also transferring to broadcasting, public speaking, and presentation-heavy careers outside the entertainment industry. Acting & Performing Arts is offered as a bachelor's degree at Youngsan University in Haeundae-gu, South Korea, with instruction delivered in English. The program runs four years, with intakes in March or September. Students entering this field should be prepared for performance-based coursework that requires regular rehearsal, public presentation of work, and ongoing feedback on technique, since acting is learned largely through repeated practice rather than lecture-based study alone.
