Overview
Train to be a professional performing artist, arts manager, administrator or cultural entrepreneur with the Bachelor of Performing Arts (BPA). The BPA is a cross-disciplinary degree that at its heart is a commitment to collaboration and self-generation – elements which are crucial to young artists’ future success.
The BPA degree addresses a gap in performing arts education: how you will put your training to use once you graduate. There are many ways to do this, and most require the ability to create one’s own opportunities, often in collaboration with peers. With the BPA program, you'll get the unique opportunity to create original, multi-disciplinary shows while developing the entrepreneurial skills necessary to launch a self-directed performing arts career.
In a one-of-a-kind partnership in Canada, this program is offered jointly by Douglas College and Capilano University.
