Created in 2012 by six institutions (CNSAD-PSL, CNSMDP, ENSAD, La Fémis, ENSBA, ENS-PSL), the SACRe doctoral programme is aimed at artists and creators as well as scientists.

The three-year first cycle is the foundation for learning to be a performer and leads to the DNSPM. The teachers, exceptional artists and teachers, guide the students in the development of their practice and their relationship with their instrument.

Lasting two years, the second cycle offers performers the opportunity to achieve the highest standards in the practice of their art, with autonomy and a critical sense.
