The programme consists of four semesters of full-time study and is run jointly with the University of Copenhagen, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim and the University of Tampere under the title:“NoMAds – Nordic Master of Arts degree in Dance Studies”. The course consists of six obligatory courses(75 credits), 1-2 optional courses (15 credits in total) and an obligatory assessed written essay module (30 credits). Four topics are offered as intensive one-week courses: dance and cultural theory, dance history, dance analysis and dance anthropology.
