    Master Programs in Playwriting

    Students who study playwriting learn advanced techniques of composition, develop enhanced literary skills and boost their critical thinking skills. A program of study in this field may include a wide introduction into various theater arts topics such as production, direction, acting and music.

    Master-level studies involve specialized study in a field of research or an area of professional practice. Earning a master’s degree demonstrates a higher level of mastery of the subject.
    Earning a master’s degree can take anywhere from a year to three or four years. Before you can graduate, you usually must write and defend a thesis, a long paper that is the culmination of your specialized research.
