With hand-on experiences in fundamental elements of performance, design and technical theatre, you develop applied skills in every facet of the discipline.
Courses in theatre history and theory provide a well-rounded appreciation of the past, present, and future of theatre. Our program includes the flexibility to pursue additional drama topics of your specific interest.
Students interested in teaching elementary school are encouraged to pursue the Bachelor of Arts-Dramatic Arts/Bachelor of Education degree.
