NTNU Choreomundus Scholarship 2012
NTNU Choreomundus Scholarship 2012 - Choreomundus investigates dance and other movement systems (ritual
practices, martial arts, games and physical theatre) as Intangible
Cultural Heritage within the broader contexts of Ethnochoreology, the
Anthropology of Dance, Dance Studies, and Heritage Studies.
The programme is offered by a consortium of four universities
recognised for their leadership in the development of innovative
curricula for the analysis of dance.
Choreomundus focuses on fieldwork and formal analysis of movement, and
engages with a variety of theoretical and methodological frameworks. The
programme develops an appreciation of dance that is comparative,
cross-cultural, applied, and embodied, and gives students the tools for
making sense of intangible heritage within a culturally diverse world.
The programme aims to provide practical
skills to observe, analyse, document, and evaluate dances. It will equip
students to analyse dance as knowledge, practice and heritage and to
promote different modes of knowledge transmission adapted to local
contexts. A broader aim is to equip students for global challenges and
cultural encounters. Employment opportunities exist worldwide within
higher education and research, heritage and tourist industries, local
and national agencies and public bodies which deal with safeguarding of
Intangible Cultural Heritage.
Applicants should hold a undergraduate first degree in Dance, Anthropology or related subjects, or equivalent professional experience. The primary language of instruction is English, and an introduction to French, Norwegian, and Hungarian is provided.
In the first semester all students start in Norway for induction and an intensive course. For the rest of the first academic year, they are divided between NTNU Trondheim and UBP Clermont-Ferrand, and then spend their third semester in Hungary, and the fourth and final semester in the UK. Students who successfully complete the programme will be awarded a joint Masters degree from all four universities.
