Dance
At the Tisch Department of Dance, we seek to develop and prepare fully realized dance artists to be critical thinkers, fearless leaders, and fluent performers.
The Tisch Dance Bachelor's (BFA) program emphasizes the techniques of ballet and contemporary dance, with equal emphasis on performance and choreography. To learn more about our BFA program, we welcome you to register for an upcoming Tisch Dance Department Tour or Virtual Q&A Session!
The MFA in Dance: Interdisciplinary Research provides a laboratory for established artists, makers, and practitioners to reimagine and enact dance through a range of collaborative and self-directed research from the speculative to the practical. To learn more about our MFA program, we welcome you to register for an upcoming MFA in Dance Info Session!
Tisch Dance invites artists who are interested in exploring thought-provoking questions, researching new ideas, and demonstrating creative choice making with agency and curiosity.
