Master of Arts in Theater

The MA in Theatre option Major Research Paper (one year) aims to bridge theoretical and practical approaches to the study of theatre. 

The program enables students to broaden their academic scope with regard to the epistemological and interdisciplinary specificity of theatre as an art form and as a discipline of study.

The Major Research Paper is prepared under the direction of the research paper supervisor, and its topic approved by the graduate committee. 

The research paper is approximately 50 pages long and is evaluated by another professor once the student's supervisor has approved it. 

The research paper analyses and broadens one of the topics discussed in the courses.

The MA in Theatre with Major Research Paper extends over 3 terms (one year).

Both options are offered on full-time and part-time basis. They can be pursued in English and/or in French.

The Department offers a collaborative program in Medieval and Renaissance Studies at the MA level for the thesis option only.

The programs are governed by the University's academic regulations.
