This coursework master’s degree programme is offered over two years and comprises two core modules. One module entails research, including research methodology, an exam and the writing of a mini-dissertation. The arts therapy specialisation module can be completed in one of the following fields: Art Therapy, Dance/Movement Therapy, Drama Therapy or Music Therapy.
A practical clinical internship which is assessed through on-site and group supervision needs to be passed before the degree can be conferred.
Please note: Only two arts therapies specialisations are currently available, namely Music Therapy and Art Therapy.
In addition to the successful completion of the two core modules, all students – irrespective of the selected arts therapy specialisation – are required to pass a clinical internship of 1000 hours distributed throughout the programme.
A student passes with distinction when an average mark of 75% is achieved for the core modules.
ATS 800 is compulsory. Only one of the Arts therapies specialisation modules should be selected.
Not all specialities are necessarily available in a specific year – see Programme information.
