College of Arts and Sciences Theater and Dance Degrees & Programs

Degrees and Specializations

Classroom educational activities are enhanced through mainstage and student theater/dance productions. Emphasis is placed on the development of critical thinking abilities, discipline-specific technique, and collaborative/communication skills, as well as the ability of students to consider their work within historical and contemporary contexts. Our students are challenged to view themselves as collaborating professionals on the first day they step into a classroom.

“SIUE has such an amazing program. The department has gone above and beyond to ensure my future as a professional dancer. We had so many performance opportunities as well as professional experiences. Having these opportunities gave me the confidence to enter the workforce knowing I was ready to contribute.”

–Rico Velazquez, Dance 2013, Company Member Diavolo Dance

The Department provides instruction and practical performance experience in all phases of theater and dance production for the stage. While students are encouraged to develop their creative, intellectual and technical potential in the performing arts, they also have the opportunity to pursue minors in diverse areas such as mass communications, psychology, anthropology, history and more.
