DEGREES OFFERED

Bachelor of Arts in Dance

Bachelor of Arts with a Concentration in Dance


The Barnard College Department of Dance, located in a world dance capital, offers an interdisciplinary program that integrates the study of dance within a liberal arts setting of intellectual and creative exploration. The major builds upon studio courses, the Department's productions at Miller Theater, New York Live Arts and other venues, as well as a rich array of dance studies courses, allowing students' creative work to develop in dialogue with critical inquiry into the history, culture, theory and forms of western and non-western performance, typically enhanced by study in other disciplines. Students work with accomplished artists whose work enriches contemporary American dance; they also study with outstanding research scholars. Making, thinking about, and writing about art are an essential part of the liberal arts education. For this reason the Department of Dance offers technique courses for students of all levels of expertise, while opening its other courses to majors and non-majors alike, who may also audition for its productions. The Department partners with cultural institutions in New York City to connect students with the professional world. The Department of Dance is fully accredited and in good standing with the National Association of Schools of Dance.

Paul A. Scolieri, Colleen Thomas-Young, Marjorie Folkman, Seth Stewart Williams, Gabri Christa, Katie Glasner.

Science Channel will commemorate the one-year anniversary of the passing of one the greatest scientific minds the world has ever known, theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, with a two-hour special that explores his connection to Albert Einstein, and their enormous influence on our understanding of the Universe. Einstein's general theory of relativity laid the groundwork for much of modern physics, including Hawking's work on black holes and the Big Bang. Hawking's landmark best seller, A Brief History of Time, introduced these theories in layman's terms to a mass audience, catapulting Hawking to a level of science superstardom not seen since Einstein. EINSTEIN AND HAWKING: UNLOCKING THE UNIVERSE premieres Sunday, March 10 at 8pm ET/PT on Science Channel.
