The Department of Theatre and Dance offers various programs of study leading to the B.A. degree in theatre.
These program areas include:
- acting
- musical theatre
- theatre management and administration
- scene design and technical production
- costume design and production
Please see the principal advisor in each of these areas for entrance requirements and a suggested course of study.
The highly motivated student who seeks to be well prepared for either the profession or graduate education may choose to take more hours in the major than the specified 36.
This plan of action is highly desirable and strongly advised, but is not required.
If more than 42 hours are accrued in the major, the student will be exceeding the 120-credit-hour requirement for graduation by the number of hours taken over the single subject 42-credit-hour limit.
Please visit the current catalog for a Suggested Sequence of Courses for Theatre Majors.
