Minors are available in both degree programs.
This program is designed to give the student a thorough preparation in all aspects of theatre, both to equip the potential elementary and secondary teacher with the necessary knowledge and skills and to support any graduate school specialty the major may choose to pursue. The range of elective courses permits the major a small amount of specialization within the curriculum, but the primary intention of the curriculum is to achieve a broad fundamental preparation in theatre, with the belief that specialization is the proper pursuit of graduate study. Each major is expected and required to be available to work on every production in the department's season. Each University season is chosen for balance and variety. Productions range from classical to modern in plays and include dance concerts and musical comedy.
