THDN - Theater and Dance Major

The Theater and Dance Department is committed to the integration of the two disciplines of theater and dance. The department’s curriculum supports both the specific areas of training required in each discipline as well as the ways in which each informs the other, in both theory and in practice, over time and across cultures.

To this end, the Theater and Dance Department offers students the choice of six suggested concentrations, as well as the opportunity to design their own concentration in the major.

The 100-, 200-, and some 300-level courses in the department are designed for students with a general interest as well as for those students intending to become majors.

No more than three full credits in techniques and applications of theater and dance courses (THDN 109, THDN 209, and THDN 309) may be counted toward fulfillment of the general credit requirement for the bachelor’s degree.
