The Department of Modern Dance at the University of Utah has a history of excellence that unites the world of academia with the world of professional dance. Many alumni are working with international, national and regional dance companies as dancers, choreographers, and artistic directors. Others are teachers and administrators in high schools, universities and professional studios.
With nine full-time and several part-time faculty members, standards of professional excellence are a tradition. Through a rigorous and demanding program of study, talented students are nurtured and challenged. The undergraduate program leads to a BFA degree and an MFA degree is offered at the graduate level.
Dancers from all parts of the nation and from many foreign countries are drawn by the faculty's philosophic commitment to the development of kinesthetic awareness, theoretical understanding, creative ability and aesthetic sensitivity in addition to technical accomplishment. It is the faculty's conviction that such training not only prepares students to be vital and exciting artists, but also creative human beings committed to the enrichment of society.
