Programs in Theatre & Film Studies


The School of the Arts offers a broadly based program of study in the history, theory, and critical understanding of dramatic performance in both live and recorded media. Experiential learning in the program centers on devising, an approach that allows students to learn multiple methods for building a live performance work by taking up a broad range of cultural experiences. The program requirements provide an overview of the field at Level I, build core skills at Level II, and offer differentiated applications of skills and knowledge at Level III. Courses at Level IV synthesize and expand these skills and knowledge. Students are advised to note carefully the prerequisites for all courses and to take note of which courses are offered in alternate years.
