Why study drama at QUT?

You love drama. You love everything about it. You love performing it and you love making it - writing, directing, organising and collaborating. You know drama has the capacity to change people's lives because it has changed yours. Now you want to have the skills, knowledge and connections to create, present, promote and teach; to have the chance of a professional life with people who are as passionate as you to share the excitement of live performance.

If you are interested in exploring practical careers in directing, designing, teaching, devising, creative producing and administration, or performing in a range of experimental theatre forms, then this drama course is for you. QUT's drama degrees offer flexibility and breadth, combining creative experiences in performance making with highly relevant theoretical studies that will connect you with contemporary performance both nationally and globally.

You will be taught by a range of industry professionals whose expertise and passion will inspire and guide you, and who in future years may become your mentors and colleagues. You will find yourself collaborating with talented students and the creative relationships you develop will establish the professional networks you will be drawing on throughout your career.
