DNCE3002: 2nd Year Career Readiness for Dancers

The DNCE 3002 career management course degree requirement is designed to ensure you know how to pursue dance and dance-related opportunities during the next two years at the dance program and to deepen your liberal arts education through co-curricular experiential learning opportunities (e.g., apprenticeships, intensives, learning abroad, and community engaged learning, among others). These experiences enhance your learning and connect you to the broader dance community, laying the stage for work and jobs upon graduation. This course will support you in articulating your values and mapping multiple trajectories that align with your values. This course is designed to pull apart, name, and engage with aspects of a life in dance that sometimes feel hidden, obscured, or slippery in order to support you in making intentional and purposeful choices in your education and experiences outside of school. This course will also examine the relationship of self to dance, supporting you in cultivating resilience and practicing failure. This course is a hybrid course, with the bulk of the coursework happening via Canvas, 4 full class meetings, and 2 individual or small-group meetings over the course of the semester.
