Dance Major The dance major helps students develop in several areas: technical proficiency, historical and cultural perspectives, personal artistry, and production skills. The program also provides students with an understanding of how dance fits into a larger, global context. Students in the major learn the behind-the-scenes process of putting a show together and get the opportunity (in choreography and dance composition courses) to develop their unique voices as artists. The dance major prepares graduates for careers in dance performance, choreography, and dance education, as well as advanced study in graduate programs.
