Hunter College POSTPONES Launch of new MFA Program in Dance

Hunter College has postponed the planned FALL 2012 launch of its new MFA/Dance degree program. Aiming to engage a diverse, talented and motivated student body destined to become leaders in the field, the 60-credit curriculum integrates the rigorous study of art making and performance with a diverse array of aesthetics, cultural perspectives, and pedagogy. The program will be built around core Hunter full-time and part-time faculty, prominent guest artists, strong and ongoing relationships with curators, theaters and other NYC resources. Cross-disciplinary and specialized interests are a significant feature of the program curriculum: our aim is to merge professional-level artistic practice with invigorating critical perspectives in a supportive and challenging community of artist/thinkers/educators prepared for the future of the field.
