Department Overview:

The Department of Performing Arts was established in 2010 with the vision of providing ?Integrity through Aesthetic performance?. Its mission is to inspire and mentor the birth and sustained growth of artists who, through cultural ethos, will embody respect, humanity and discipline. The primary aim of the programme is not to make students experts in one art form or the other, but introduce them to the possibilities with art and to help them get an integrated sense of art. The department has more than 150 students who are guided by 5 permanent and 2 guest faculty members. The first batch graduated in the year 2013. At present, the department offers three undergraduate and one postgraduate programmes

Mission Statement:

Integrity through aesthetic performance? Mission To inspire and mentor the birth and sustained growth of performance artists who, through cultural ethos, will embody respect, humility and discipline.

Introduction to Program:

The Bachelors in Performing Arts is envisioned for students who have a flair for dance, music and theatre and are looking for structured intervention at the UG level. The programme hopes to give a strong platform for our students to develop a passion for the arts, sharpen their artistic skills and broaden their theoretical base. While the focus will be predominantly within the parameters of dance, music and theatre, other art forms would act as subsidiaries under this three-dimensional approach.

The primary aim of the programme is not to make students experts in one art form or the other, but introduce them to the possibilities with art and to help them get an integrated sense of art. It is desirable that every student continues to work under an artist/group in one art form or the other outside curriculum, towards long term development,

 

The Creative Media double degree involves the application of Performing Arts (Indian Dance, Music and Theatre) and Media skills to create portfolios of digital content. Students will create a portfolio featuring their digital content creation skills such as content for social media, advertisements, short film and television shows.
