Program Description

University of Southern California (USC) Kaufman is at the forefront of developing a hybrid art form comprised of intersecting dance techniques expressed in new media, scholarship, studio practice, and choreography for the 21st century. USC Kaufman’s Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) program provides foundational insight, intellectual and artistic development, a robust performance repertory, exposure to world-renowned practicing artists, interdisciplinary projects, and conditioning for dancers and strategic career venture skills. Through opportunities for interdisciplinary study, students can explore collaborations and innovations with established partners.

About the School

Founded in 2012 by a transformational gift from visionary founder Glorya Kaufman, the University of Southern California created its sixth art school and, at that time, its first new school in nearly 40 years. The USC Glorya Kaufman School of Dance expands upon USC’s unique signature as a world-class research institution with a deep commitment to the arts. With its enterprising vision for arts education, USC Kaufman is at the forefront of developing dancers, choreographers, and dance leaders for the future.

The exciting opportunity to create a new school brought the chance to rethink the professional degree for the 21st century and a dance school's role within the greater national ecology. To fulfill this monumental intention, USC Kaufman envisioned a new dance education model, called “The New Movement” – a hybrid and collaborative approach expressed in studio practice, music, choreography, performance, new media, and scholarship, where artistic preeminence is combined with thoughtful industry access.
