Theatre Arts and Dance Minors
Students working toward one of the four minors in theatre arts or dance must complete a minimum of 18-24 hours of specific coursework. Hours applied to the minor area of study may not include courses used to fulfill requirements in the student’s major. Because each minor takes at least four long semesters to complete, students should begin the minor in theatre arts or dance as early as possible in their academic career. Prospective minors should meet with the theatre arts and dance advisor as soon as possible for course information regarding prerequisites, availability, etc.
About the Dance Minor
Students who wish to minor in dance must also audition for the dance program. Auditions are held every fall and spring semester and consist of prospective students learning and performing movement in contemporary, ballet, and jazz. Solos will not be seen. Auditions also include an expository writing component. Acceptance to Texas Tech does not ensure admission as a dance minor. Students accepted as a dance minor must complete the following 24 credit hours:
- DAN 1100 (2 semesters)
- DAN 1200
- DAN 2202 , DAN 2313 , DAN 3208 , DAN 3309
- AT LEAST 10 credit hours (5 classes) from:
- DAN 1203 , DAN 2203 , DAN 3203 , DAN 4203 , DAN 1205 , DAN 2205 , DAN 3205 , DAN 4205 , DAN 1207 , DAN 2207 , DAN 3207 , DAN 4207
Students in the Dance minor must complete at least ONE course from each technique genre (Jazz, Ballet, and Contemporary); no more than TWO courses from each genre can be applied to the minor/concentration. Some courses may be repeated for credit depending on faculty-assigned placement levels.
