Bachelor of Arts in Art (B.A.A.) - Concentration in Dance (2133)
Students in the B.A.A. degree program in Fine and Performing Arts produces graduates who:
- exhibit skill and depth of application in the primary emphasis: visual art, graphic design, dance, theatre-acting, or theatre-tech;
- integrate knowledge and practice of other arts disciplines into their primary emphasis;
- apply critical and analytical methodologies in their primary emphasis;
- demonstrate a broad understanding of the scope of the arts and their contribution to a global society;
- construct a personal aesthetic perspective.
Core coursework develops foundational skills and knowledge for all areas of the Arts. Concentration-specific coursework builds on those foundational skills and knowledge to develop expertise in a broad area of interest. Additional coursework within the concentration allows students to refine and focus skills to best suit the student’s chosen career path.
This major does require the completion of a minor.
