Minor Overview

Dance-making and producing are emphasized in this minor, which benefits students who want to work as choreographers, artistic directors or as dance directors in schools.

The minor has courses in music, choreography and dance production. Students produce and choreograph their own concert in a final capstone project. Choreography minors will submit a letter of intent and a video of a group or self-choreographed dance for their application.
