BACHELORS OF FINE ARTS IN THEATRE
If you want to eat, drink, and sleep theatre, you might be ready for UTEP’s Bachelors of Fine Arts program!

Whether your ambition is to become a professional actor, scenic designer, or costume artisan, the BFA program at UTEP will equip you with the tools you need to take your next step. Because of the intensive nature of the BFA tracks, you will not be able to carry a minor or second major, but the additional training is worth the sacrifice.
