Number of Credits in Major Required for Degree: 43
Basic Requirements (31 Credit Hours)
Elective Requirements - Select four from the following list (12 Credit Hours)
(Students with particular interests in design, technical theatre, acting or directing should consult their advisors for guidance in the selection of Elective Requirements.)
Minimum Competence Requirement
A grade of C- or better is required for each of the following courses: all required courses, whether basic, elective, or focus.
Department Writing Requirement
All theatre majors write in all theatre courses, but the style and content of the writing varies widely based upon the course topic. Examples include journals, concept statements, dramatic fiction, production analyses, character analyses, and traditional research papers, such as one might find in any other course in the humanities. In the required theatre history sequence of four courses (THEA 202 , THEA 203 , THEA 204 , THEA 305 ), students write traditional research papers combining theatrical history with the study of dramatic literature and criticism. In the process, students learn to read primary and secondary sources closely, to conduct academic research, and to write essays with a well-argued thesis and properly documented sources.
Total Credit Hours: 120
Where no prerequisites apply, some variation in the order or semester in which courses are taken is possible. Students should consult their academic advisors for additional information.
