Bachelor of Arts [B.A] Theater and Dance

  • Courses in The Arts of Theater and Dance are grouped into three levels: the Core Courses and other technique courses without pre-requisites, 200-level intermediate courses, and 300-level advanced studio courses.
  • Majors must complete all three Core Courses (THDA 111, 112 & 113) by the end of the first semester of junior year.
  • Majors should complete all three Core Courses and an appropriate 200-level intermediate course before undertaking a 300-level advanced studio course.  
  • Ideally, students should complete two of the Core Courses before taking a 200-level intermediate course.
  • Intermediate and advanced studio courses have specific prerequisites, or require permission of the instructor, so planning is advisable.
  • Depending on the student’s interests, additional courses may be advisable. Many majors complete two 300-level advanced studio courses even though only one is required, as well as additional 200-level intermediate courses. They encourage all majors to explore different areas in addition to courses that lead only to a specific advanced studio course.
  • It may be difficult to approve his senior project proposal unless he completes THDA 114, THDA 400H, and a 300-level advanced studio course by the end of his junior year. Remember, not all courses are offered every semester.
