Temple University Dance Department


About the Department

Performance, choreography, scholarship and education are of the highest caliber at Boyer College, and the community is comprised of exceptionally talented and collaborative individuals. In 2012, an MFA in Dance student was named in Dance Magazine's “25 to Watch;” the department launched Reflection:Response, a new speaker and performance series, with a choreographic commission; and Boyer Dance students were invited to perform their work at the Kennedy Center. These achievements demonstrate the faculty’s commitment to developing students as critical thinkers who can shape the field of dance scholarship and professional practice.
