The Department of Theatre and Dance advances the knowledge of the
practice, history, and the contemporary range of the diverse
repertoire of drama and choreography in its Dramatic Art major.

using voice, body, and gesture, spatial and material
visualization and implementation, sociocultural media, and
academic exploration, and argumentation.
