Outside of the main curriculum, we regularly offer students a range of technique classes, professional platforms to develop new work, opportunities to join our public-facing performance groups The Lincoln Company and the Lincoln Dance Collective, and involvement in practice-as-research projects. We take pride in an ethos of internationalism, interdisciplinarity, and collaboration, and we are committed to supporting diversity.

The school maintains healthy research and professional practice and knowledge exchange cultures, and the University holds a gold standard in the Teaching Excellence Framework; actively supporting colleagues in contributing to the Research Excellence Framework and Professional Practice profile.
