UTEP's theatre arts program trains students in a global repertoire of acting, design, tech and management. At the same time, students will cultivate a culturally and socially informed understanding of theatre as an art and as a tool for social change.
Sabrina Fernandez, who earned her bachelor's in theatre arts with a concentration in costume design, developed her skills during a research project to help breast cancer survivors with their fashion choices. Her training helped her land an internship with Nordstrom that became a job as a stylist manager.
Graduates of the theatre arts programs are prepared with the skills necessary to succeed in graduate degree programs or have successful careers in professional and educational theatre.
