A student may choose to emphasize in one of two areas: Acting/Directing Emphasis or Design/Tech Emphasis. Once an emphasis is chosen, the student will work closely with their departmental advisor to determine one or more focus areas for a more individualized plan of study. Focus areas include: acting, directing, design, management, education and technical theatre. This allows great flexibility to develop and enhance a student?s strengths in addition to providing essential foundations and skills necessary for a fuller intellectual grasp of the art form.
