This degree emphasizes training and preparing dancers to enter the dance world as working professionals. Course work includes dance composition; fully realized junior and senior choreographic projects; performance opportunities in faculty, guest artist and student works; and ballet and modern dance technique in every semester of study.
Practical course work is supplemented by written requirements that further investigate and analyze creative processes. All senior performance and choreography majors submit a form-written project for graduation.
