It also aims to test knowledge of a student\u2019s chosen research and teaching areas to verify sufficient grounding in scholarship relevant to a student\u2019s area of research, particularly the dissertation topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The examination consists of three sections, each based on a list of thirty texts for a total of ninety. List One, the \u201cTheatre, Dance &amp; Performance Studies Field List,\u201d is a set list of texts (dramatic and performance theory; theatre, dance and performance history and historiography, dramatic literature, performance texts, <em>etc<\/em>.) designed to assess the candidate\u2019s overall command of several key theories, controversies, and debates in the field with the goal of equipping students to teach in theatre and performance programs. The second list, the \u201cDissertation Research Area \u2013 General List,\u201d reflects the broader area in theatre, dance and performance studies in which the dissertation is situated (<em>e.g.<\/em>, Canadian theatre, performance theory, actor training methods, somatics, performance art, critical dance studies and pedagogy, postcolonial theatre, physical and devised theatre). Each text speaks to the relationship between the student\u2019s specialized interest and the broad field of theatre and performance studies. The student chooses the 30 texts on this list in consultation with the comprehensive examination committee. The final list, the \u201cDissertation Research area \u2013 Specific List,\u201d is specifically related to the dissertation and may be outside of theatre, dance and performance studies (<em>e.g.<\/em>, site-specific performance, feminist and queer theory, critical race theory, cultural geography, arts and cultural policy, autobiographical theory, popular culture studies). The texts on this list directly inform the dissertation. The list of materials is chosen by students in consultation with the supervisory committee and submitted to the Graduate Program Director for approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The comprehensive examination is comprised of a take-home examination, normally taken during the summer term of the second year of doctoral study. Students have two weeks to write three 12-15 page responses to three essay questions. Questions are developed with input from students, who propose three possible questions for each list, for a total of nine questions. The questions are a starting point for the examination committee, who revise and adapt them in consultation with students. At the time of the examination the committee chooses one question per list for the examination; students learn which questions have been chosen at the start of the examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon successful completion of the written examination, the student is asked to meet for an oral examination approximately one week after the results have been transmitted. The committee meets with the student for approximately 90 minutes, during which students are expected to answer follow-up questions arising from the written examination as well as other questions the committee deems appropriate.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-24 kt-pane279_a4297e-e2\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">Dissertation Proposal<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>No more than three months after the successful completion of the comprehensive examination, students are required to submit a dissertation proposal, following the program\u2019s dissertation proposal guidelines to the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
