BA/BS in Dance

The Dance program at Sonoma State University leads to a Bachelor of Arts degree and is listed in the university's general catalog for the current academic year. Students work toward the degree alongside the university's broader general education curriculum, which sits next to the major coursework. The Department of Theatre Arts and Dance runs the major in two phases, with an audition for prospective majors. The curriculum is organized around a core of required courses and further electives chosen in consultation with faculty advisors. Learning outcomes published in the catalog emphasize studio and production work, including stagecraft. Graduates of this program go on to a range of careers and further study that build on the habits of mind the major develops. Prospective students should read the catalog entry for current course lists, advising notes and degree rules before planning a schedule.
