Drama with International Study

Study in the USA for a year as part of your degree and develop, over the course’s four-years, the skills needed for success as a global professional in the Creative and Performing Arts.

Drama at Greenwich is an innovative and practice-led course where, on the UK-delivered elements of the course, you’ll learn and work out of the Bathway Theatre in Woolwich - a specialist facility with six studios and a flexible auditorium. At Greenwich, you'll be taught by world-leading academics and theatre practitioners and we have great partnerships with organisations working in the creative industries at local, national and international level.

Take part in a range of modules from devising to technical theatre, directing and writing. Hone your performance skills through large-scale public productions and create your own Theatre Company in the final year to kick-start your professional future.

You’ll also get the chance on this course to study - in your third year - for a year in the USA, enhancing your global profile.

The University of Greenwich empowers students to live life as the main characters of their own story, discovering new talents, building skills and developing their independence as part of an inclusive and supportive community.

With three well-connected campuses situated across London and Kent, you'll certainly find the right backdrop to channel your main character's energy. Together, these campuses provide the platform for a diverse and continually evolving community.

Most famous is Greenwich Campus. With its iconic view and cameo in Marvel's Thor, Greenwich Campus is a UNESCO World Heritage Site right on the River Thames, just a few miles from the heart of London.

Avery Hill Campus offers students a relaxed environment in the leafy London neighbourhood of Eltham and is only 30 minutes by train from central London. Everything is on-site and there are many students living on campus so it's a lively place to be.

Medway Campus is a historic site with redbrick buildings in north Kent. Students live, work and socialise on-site. There's a shopping centre across the road and the train to London takes 45 minutes.

There are hundreds of degree courses to choose from in a wide range of disciplines. Many courses offer a placement year option, giving you the chance to gain career-enhancing industry experience. There are also opportunities to earn while you study with the Student Job shop scheme.
