This degree is well-suited for theatre students who already have a more defined career focus. The course of study is intensive
and provides a strong foundation in a specialized area of theatre. The BAC in Theatre with a Specialization in Design/Technical
Theatre degree includes a thorough foundation in all areas of theatre technology, plus design and practical application through
continuing participation in our production program. This degree includes 70 hours of coursework outside of the department, as well as a core theatre curriculum and a specialized
