Program details

Overview

This 45-credit, thesis-based Master of Arts examines theatre and cinema with an opening onto literature, and is presented as the only program of its kind in Quebec addressing the interrelations among these three fields. Students develop research and research-creation skills, working across theatrical, cinematic and literary studies rather than treating them as separate disciplines. The program combines graduate coursework with a research thesis and is designed for completion in two years of full-time study, admitting in fall and winter, with an exceptional summer intake. Some courses are offered at a distance, in hybrid format or comodally. Admission requires a research project proposal and two assessment reports submitted with the application, and strong written and spoken French, since instruction is delivered in French. The degree suits students planning further graduate research or professional work bridging performance and literary studies.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 3.20 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: Applicants need a bachelor's degree, or equivalent diploma, including a minor in the target field of specialization (theatre, literary studies, or film). A minimum program or graduation average of 3.2 out of 4.33 is required. Strong written and spoken French is essential, as instruction is in French. Applicants must submit a research project proposal and two assessment reports with their application.
