Career options

The degree programme in Applied Theatre Studies can be applied in a broad range of professional fields, depending to a large extent on the individual students, their gifting and their chosen focuses.

The combination of theory and practice during the study programme opens up a number of career opportunities. For instance, the study programme can lead to an independent artistic career, e.g. in theatrical production, performing arts, dance and choreography, or as a writer.

However, many students also focus, for example, on related art forms such as film production (film direction, camera work), radio drama, video art, interactive media or network art.

A wide range of careers are also available in the field of dramatic arts (municipal and regional theatre, production or festival dramaturgy), the organisation of cultural events (e.g. culture management), journalistic and editorial activities (print media, television, radio) and in publishing (e.g. copy-editing).
