Performing Arts, Minor (Madrid)

Saint Louis University-Madrid offers students the opportunity to develop their skills in dance, music or theatre through a minor in performing arts.

You’ll gain a basic knowledge of each discipline and of the global reach of stage arts. You’ll also be provided with a broad overview of the different aspects of the stage in a Spanish and Latin — or more broadly European — context.

Students in this program become aware of the close relationship and interdependence between the different stage-art disciplines and the importance of understanding these disciplines to gain a global insight into the creativity of humankind.

Students complete a minimum of 18 credits for the minor.  Students can transfer up to 3 credits to count towards elective requirements.

You will present a final solo or group capstone performance lasting between 10 and 20 minutes that displays what has been learned through the minor. This could be a theatre work, a monologue, a solo or ensemble musical recital, a dance piece or a musical theatre piece.

Continuation Standards

A grade of "C" or better is required in every course counting for the minor and students must have a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.00 in the minor.

Students failing to meet the criteria listed above will be on program probation in the minor. A student may remain on program probation for no more than two consecutive semesters and a student may not be on program probation for more than three semesters total and remain in the program.
