舞蹈艺术学士学位

学士学位在文科教育中提供了重要的舞蹈部分。与BFA相比，BA的专业性较低，结构较少且主要要求较少。文学学士学位课程允许学生从事相关领域的课程工作，以为其他舞蹈职业做准备，例如舞蹈治疗，舞蹈管理，舞蹈历史和舞蹈教育。UCSB的舞蹈学系提供两个学位，分别是美术学士学位（BFA）和艺术学士学位（BA）。这两个程序都以工作室为中心，并强调表演和编舞。两者都需要每天上现代舞和芭蕾舞课。课程课程包括舞蹈的理论和技术方面的内容，并具有广泛的相关艺术和科学经验。
The curriculum for the Dance B.A. degree track emphasizes performance and choreography. The B.A. option is a broad-based liberal arts degree that allows you to take courses in areas other than dance and prepares you for careers in areas such as dance therapy, administration, history, or education. The Department of Theater and Dance provides a dynamic environment for the study of theater and dance. The mission of the department is to develop and nurture students' capacity for self-expression and critical thinking, to train actors, dancers, designers, directors, and playwrights for professional work, to provide students with a general education through the media of dance, performance, and theater, and to train graduate students as scholars and teachers.<br><br>The department curriculum and production season provide ample opportunities for participation in theater and dance productions and workshop activities in four performance venues. Each season, the department presents 5 main stage plays ranging from the classics to a LAUNCH PAD preview production of a new play, 3 main stage dance concerts including our professional company in residence Santa Barbara Dance Theater, and dozens of second stage productions both in theater and dance. In addition to working with the faculty, the department is a magnet for professional guest artists and scholars who interact with students throughout the year.
