The Bachelor of Arts in Dance with concentration in Performance, Choreography, and Theory is a comprehensive program of classes in technique and performance, creative process, production, history, culture, and theory. Students also have opportunities to perform in two fully produced concerts a year choreographed by faculty and guest artists, as well as in a student-choreographed, department-produced concert. The B.A. degree allows the flexibility to pursue a double major.
