Erasmus Mundus Master Scholarships in Dance Knowledge, Practice, and Heritage, Europe

1:53 PM | , , ,


Choreomundus – International master in Dance Knowledge, Practice, and Heritage
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, theAnthropology of Dance, Dance Studies, and Heritage Studies.
The programme is offered by a consortium of four universities recognised for their leadership in thedevelopment 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.
Erasmus Mundus 2013 Student scholarships
Choreomundus hope to be able to offer:
Several Category A and Category B student scholarships.
In addition and similarly to previous years, additional scholarships should be made available for:
  1. Students from the “Western Balkans and Turkey”
  2. Students from “Tunisia and Egypt”
  3. Students from the “Eastern Neighbourhood Countries” (i.e. Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine)
The distribution of these scholarships among the 131 EMMC consortia offering scholarships in 2012 will depend on their respective demand and on the geographical balance among the candidates from the countries concerned.
Student categories
Category B students are from the 27 EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway.
Category A students are from any other country in the world, provided they are not currently residents of these eligible countries (above), nor have carried out their main activity (studies, work, etc.) for more than a total of 12 months over the last five years in one of these countries. If so, they should apply as Category B students.
Admission requirements
Applications are invited from individuals who have:
  • A first degree (equivalent to 180 ECTS) or a second degree (equivalent to 120 ECTS) from a recognised higher education institution (university, college, conservatoire…) in the Humanities orSocial Sciences, preferably in dance studies, anthropology, folklore, heritage studies or in related subjects such as drama and/or theatre, music, sports and human movement studies, sociology, cultural studies, or equivalent professional experience. Minimum average grade: C according to the ECTS grading scale or equivalent average grade/mark.
  • English Language Testing System (IELTS) Level 6.5 in each band (Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking). See right hand column.
  • Two letters of recommendation supporting the application.
  • Expertise in or understanding of dance or related movement practices (rituals, games, martial arts, physical theatre etc.), which can be demonstrated through one or more of the following:
    1. a DVD or online film/video clip of no more than three minutes duration, showing the candidate’s own dancing, choreography or other relevant performances or productions, or teaching
    2. an essay of no more than three pages, focusing either on the contextual and/or movement aspects of a dance or other related practice
    3. a relevant publication.
Selection criteria:
Students will be selected on the following basis:
  1. First degree grades accounting for 50 % of the final decision
  2. CV including achievements in the field of dance or other relevant cultural performance or movement practices confirmed by submitting a DVD/online film clip, an essay or other attestation: accounting for25 % of the final decision.
  3. A letter of motivation (Personal statement) accounting for 25 %of the final decision
Grades are assumed to mirror applicants’ academic competence, but not necessarily their competence in the field of dance or other movement practices. A personal statement, describing their dance background, their reasons for applying and their future plans will reveal their motivation as well as their command of English. The CV and DVD/essay will help the Admission team in selecting the highest achievers.
In accordance with Life Long Learning Requirements, students may be admitted based on a combination of formal learning/education and approved prior learning and work experience.
Candidates should take into consideration that with a limited number of funded places on offer, not all applicants accepted onto the course will be awarded a scholarship, especially since the EU restricts scholarships to two per country in order to ensure geographical diversity.
Choreomundus will start with its second cohort of students in August 2013. A number of scholarships for students from all parts of the world, including Europe, will be available.
