This degree program is a four-year sequence of courses in design, theatre technology and visual arts, paired with mainstage production assignments which support the department’s annual season.  Most students elect to focus their upper-level study in one or two concentration areas (see featured concentrations above).

Students who wish to explore theatre design, technology and other areas, such as marketing, acting/directing or a double major, should consider the BA Theatre degree program.

From the very first semester of Freshman year, BFA Design & Technology students work in valuable positions on mainstage productions.  Under the guidance of expert faculty, staff, and guest artists, students progress from entry-level crew positions to the highest level positions of each technical discipline (including mainstage design roles).
