Developed and implemented in 1996 and revised in 2005, the Department of Theater and Dance’s Dance Minor program provides a foundation for those interested in teaching dance, working with a dance company, managing a private dance studio, working with theater productions, or desiring a broad-based education within the dance discipline.
