The BFA
in Dance Performance, offers professional
preparation which includes extensive study in Studio Technique, Choreographic
Studies and Dance Theory. The focus of this degree is the development
of dancers, who will enter the professional world of dance/arts as
performers and choreographers. Beyond the expectation for continuing
opportunities for performance, students selecting the BFA will develop
and present solo and group Senior Choreographic Projects.
The BA in Dance Studies is developed to explore the potential study
of dance related to a spectrum of individual interests. It is designed
to
provide students with a comprehensive core of study in dance while encouraging
the development of an individualized program through a focused selection
of elective courses. A student with additional interest in another area
[i.e., African Studies, Anthropology, Education, Communications, Women’s
Studies, Theatre, History, Religious Studies, Psychology, etc.] would complete
focused study in that area along with the core of study in dance. Each
student would be required to develop a final Independent Project incorporating
dance with their focused study.
The Dance Minor is designed to provide students with a scope of experiences
in dance, which includes studio technique, creative studio studies and
dance theory. The student seeking a Dance Minor should arrange to meet
with the academic advisor in dance.
