Dance (Minor)
The Dance Minor features a core set of courses that balance an education in the history of dance, the acquisition of technical skills in movement and choreography, and in teaching. Additional electives in technique and movement are required to continue developing both specific and broad skills.
History and Culture - 6 credits
Choose one additional history course:
Technique - 4 credits
Students may test out of DAN 144 or DAN 151. They must then take the “Level II” equivalent (DAN 217, DAN 246, or DAN 257) one additional time to complete the core requirement.
Students are to complete DAN 150 twice.
Electives - 6 credits
Students must take 6 semester hours worth of electives. They can choose a range of these courses to acquire breadth of skill. However, students must take one 200-level course twice to create an emphasis in technique. Students who test out of DAN 144 or DAN 151 and instead take DAN 217, DAN 246, or DAN 257 will take their emphasis course three total times.
