- Completion of an undergraduate degree in the arts (across art forms such as the performing arts, music, visual arts, film, dance & digital arts); or

- Competencies in applying tools & techniques in imaginative play, lateral thinking, interpersonal & intrapersonal skills, social creativity, emotional & multiple intelligence methods
- Commitment to an intense praxis study model that encompasses research and practice
Behavioural and Social Attributes:
- Students must possess behavioural and social attributes that enable them to participate in a complex learning environment.
- Students must take full responsibility for their own participation and learning.
- Students also contribute to the learning of other students in collaborative environments and must therefore demonstrate a wide range of interpersonal skills, which consider the needs of other students. Assessment will include the outcomes of tasks completed in collaboration with other students.
Disability:
- Students who have a disability which may prevent them from participating in tasks involving these inherent academic requirements are encouraged to contact the Disability Liaison Unit: http://www.services.unimelb.edu.au/disability/
Adjustments can be provided to minimise the impact of a disability; however, students will need to participate in the course in an independent manner.
