Theatre Minor

(1) THTR 101 satisfies the Liberal Studies Fine Arts requirement but may not be counted toward the Theatre minor.

(2) Practicum credit is gained through assignment to theatre and dance company productions under the supervision of a faculty member. It is usually granted at 1-2cr for an assignment. Therefore, more than one assignment will need to be completed if a student wishes to accumulate exactly 18cr in the minor. It is possible to complete one practicum assignment and complete the balance of the minor with additional electives. This will usually result in 19 or 20cr in the minor.

(3) Six credits at 300 level or above is required.
