Students in the Dance minor at Curry College perform on stage in the Keith AuditoriumAre you the kind of person who learns by moving?  Do you want to merge scholarship with creativity, expressiveness, and social advocacy?  Then you should consider the Dance minor at Curry College.

You can declare a minor in dance to complement a major in any other area of study.  All dance courses also satisfy General Education requirements at Curry.  The combination of a dance minor with a major in public health and wellness, psychology, graphic design, studio arts, or business administration, for example, may lead to graduate study and/or careers in such fields as dance/health education, expressive therapies, or arts administration. A minor in dance may also enhance the preparation and competitiveness of students enrolled in the educator licensure majors.
