Learn more about Dance PhD degree programs
Dance is a movement-based art form. Students of dance and other performing arts often develop confidence, self-awareness, and self-discipline through their coursework and practice. Graduates of the topic might seek to become professional dancers, drama therapists, or teachers.
Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Master’s degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.
