Dance


Career and Co-op Options
The dance major is designed for students to focus on one of two career options. Each option can lead to graduate study at Drexel or be completed at the end of four years. Each also includes a co-op experience that allows for extended interaction with the professional dance therapy and education communities. Students wishing to change career focus throughout the course of the undergraduate curriculum will have the option to do so.

Students focusing on dance/movement therapy participate in a six month co-op experience during the spring and summer terms of their junior year. These students may participate in co-op with a practicing dance/movement therapist, community dance artist, or mental health professional in a mental health, social service, rehabilitation, medical, special education or community arts setting.

Students focusing on dance in eductation participate in after school dance clubs, artist in residence school programs and auditorium lecture demonstration programs as part of a community outreach dance company run by the dance program at Drexel during the fall and winter of their junior year as their co-op experience.

Visit the Drexel Steinbright Career Development Center page for more detailed information on co-op and post-graduate opportunities.
