The UGA Department of Dance offers the Bachelor of Arts degree through the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences. The program of study is a comprehensive dance curriculum including technical training in a wide range of styles: Contemporary Modern, Jazz, Ballet, Aerial, Hip Hop, and West African dance forms. Courses in Tap and Ballroom are also offered. UGA Dance majors often pair their studies with other pursuits, including our P12 teacher certification, our Double Dawg degree (earning an MA in Non-profit Management and Leadership with their AB in Dance in 5 years), or our two Study Away programs (Ghana and NYC) or adding a minor, certificate, or additional major in another discipline that creates a well-rounded career preparation. Dance Performance Opportunities Within an AB Degree, we are proud to also offer plenty of performance opportunities for dance majors at UGA Dance! These include our annual student-choreographed showcase and UGA Dance company concert plus our annual Black History Month event, and others, students will have diverse performance opportunities availed to them. The University of Georgia is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Dance (NASD).
