Bachelor in Contemporary Dance
Creation option
The Bachelor in Contemporary Dance offered by Manufacture – University of Performing Arts of Western Switzerland – in collaboration with Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) is the first university-level programme in contemporary dance in Switzerland. Practice-oriented, this programme features partnerships with leading international institutions. Students therefore have the opportunity to become familiar with numerous choreographic languages; meet renowned professionals in dance education and practice, and become part of a national and international network.
The Creation option, offered in Lausanne in partnership with P.A.R.T.S. (Brussels), is an integral part of the pedagogical vision followed by Manufacture’s Theatre department since 2003. The programme emphasises the concepts of creativity, independence, and a reflexive approach.
At Manufacture, the presence of a Dance and a Theatre department at a single location enables the development of synergies between the departments and fosters an interdisciplinary approach.
Audition: An audition for the Creation option is organised every year, after which Manufacture composes a class of twelve dancers.
Academic Head: Thomas Hauert.
