About the course

The BA in Dance complements the University?s liberal arts program and allows students to pursue a second major or minor in an additional area of interest. Students are provided with a rigorous program of dance training, as well as the same opportunities as the other dance degrees to audition for all faculty and student performances. The Dance program offers three degrees: the BA in Dance, which gives students the opportunity to major or minor in an additional area of interest, the BFA in Dance (by audition), which focuses on a more rigorous training program in performance and choreography, and the BS in Dance Education, which teaches students how to design and implement creative and comprehensive dance programs in Pre-K-12 schools. Prepare for a career as a performer, choreographer, teacher, or arts administrator in a wide variety of professional settings. Become part of a -knit and supportive dance community with regular advisement by both dance and academic advisors.
