experiential learning
Our music and dance majors have ample opportunities to perform — whether in ensembles, with local companies or as part of competitions, performance is integral to our program. Our Hixson-Lied Endowment provides several unique opportunities for students outside of class, including conference attendance, domestic and international study opportunities, and travel for performances or conferences.
Create, design, experiment, listen, network, travel, showcase, sell, intern, launch your career and chase your dreams. At Nebraska, you can experience it all.
