Theatre Arts Program

Curriculum
Theatre arts classes cover a broad spectrum. By choosing course offerings in the department, students can tailor a program to fit their interests and needs, within the guidelines established by the College of Arts and Sciences. Their course of study is crowned by a senior project that addresses their individual career goals. For those whose career plans include teaching drama in the public schools, Stetson offers teacher training through a cooperative program with the Division of Education.
