The Department of Performing Arts (DPA), a unit of the College of Architecture and the Arts, offers the Bachelor of Arts degree in Music or Theatre and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre. DPA's mission emphasizes the interconnectedness of the arts; cross-disciplinary study and artistic exploration are encouraged and supported. The Music curriculum includes theory, history, ear-training, and performance skills. Elective areas of concentration include performance, composition, orchestration, literature, and ethnomusicology. Music students participate in performance ensembles including The UIC Choirs, Jazz Ensemble, Concert Band, and several chamber music groups. The Theatre curriculum emphasizes a balance between practice and theory from originating impulse or idea to relation. All students participate in production programs including a Main Season of theatre.
