Embarking on graduate study is an indication that you have determined to commit your energies and intelligence to deepening and broadening your inquiry and practice in a specific discipline. Using the knowledge and skills gained as an undergraduate, your life experience and greater maturity, and your enhanced creativity, you can engage your advanced course of study with the focus it demands. At The University of the Arts, it is this seriousness of purpose that lends a special character to our graduate programs and that simultaneously influences the undergraduate students who attend the institution.

At UArts, creativity is the most highly respected attribute you can bring to your work. Its value is measured in terms of the skill, clarity, self-criticism, literacy and confidence with which you pursue your personal artistic goals. The faculty in the graduate programs here have designed the curriculum to provide the skills and knowledge demanded by the profession, but also to give students individualized attention and personal choice.

In the larger environment of this historic and culturally rich city, graduate study in the arts is a deeply fulfilling experience.
