| DANCE GRAD PROGRAMS |
As one of the arts, dance is a way of expressing our diverse and creative humanity. It is not surprising, then, to find a multitude of graduate programs in dance across North America. These programs are designed for those who want to engage in a deeper study and reach a more professional level of practice, and they aim to develop a combination of intellectual, analytical, technical and creative abilities. The academic options are more varied than a simple choice of master's or PhD. For instance, at the master's level you can pursue a Master of Fine Arts, Master of Arts, Master of Science or Master of Education. Some of the main areas of graduate dance degree specialization are dance choreography and performance, dance studies, dance education, dance science, dance theatre or dance/movement therapy. Whether it's researching the history and theories of composition and performance or focusing on actually performing, graduate students in dance cover topics like anatomy, dance history, ethnography, stagecraft, solo and group work, dance science, dance pedagogy, choreography and costume design, as well as particular dance forms like ballet, modern, jazz, tap, world dance, and dance and technology. Grad students also build skills in research, writing, critical thinking and cultural analysis, so they are well prepared for future work as scholars or artists.
