- dance history
- kinesiology for the dancer
The B.S. program has attracted
many new dancers to LIU who will be taking advantage of the opportunity
to pair their studies in dance with various minors in programs listed,
but not limited to, those below:
Pre-physical
therapy
The B.S. in Dance will
prepare the student who successfully completes the requirements
to enter the dance profession with preparation to apply to graduate
school for a Masters degree in Physical Therapy.
Students will complete the Dance Department requirements
as well as the requirements as defined by the Physical Therapy Program
at LIU to be eligible to apply to that graduate program;
Business,
management specifically, with a view towards arts management
and/or setting up and managing one’s own dance-related business;
Media,
in which a student will learn the tools of the world of video and/or
photography and apply them to dance.
They will also have the opportunity to study digitally designed
choreography programs, and experiment with their own designs;
Theatre. There
is a natural connection between dance and theatre. Students who would
like to apply their dance training to theatre performance, choreography
and/or directing, may do so in this specially designed minor.
Anthropology. The
study of world cultures almost invariably focuses on the dance. With this minor, students might expand their
studies to prepare themselves for graduate research and travel.
B.S. Dance students have the opportunity
to take various dance electives and perform in campus events.
