Â鶹´«Ã½

Â鶹´«Ã½'s Madrid campus offers students the opportunity to develop their skills in the disciplines of dance, music or theatre through a minor in performing arts.

You’ll gain a basic knowledge of each discipline and of the global reach of stage arts. You’ll also be provided with a broad overview of the different aspects of the stage in a Spanish and Latin — or more broadly European — context.

Students in this program become aware of the close relationship and interdependence between the different stage-art disciplines and the importance of understanding these disciplines to gain a global insight into the creativity of humankind.
