Bachelor of Music Theatre

About this program
The Bachelor of Music Theatre trains across four disciplines at once, singing, dancing, acting and creating, with one-on-one tuition in singing and acting rather than folding those into shared group classes. It is a 3-year (9 study period), February-intake-only degree for both domestic and international students, developing vocal power, dramatic depth and stage presence through specialist tuition, ensemble collaboration projects and public performance seasons. Delivered face to face with some online components at AIM's Melbourne and Sydney campuses. TEQSA course CRS1401315, CRICOS 111595M.
