The University of South Florida School of Theatre & Dance facilitates the growth of creative and academic artists and scholars. Rigorous training in the studio and classroom combined with frequent performance opportunities give students practical experience. Theatre students can pursue Bachelor of Arts degrees with concentrations in theatre performance, theatre design, and theatre arts. Dance students can earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance with a concentration in ballet or modern dance, or a Bachelor of Arts in Dance Studies. The school also offers minors and undergraduate certificate programs that are open to non-majors and non-degree-seeking students.
TheatreUSF began with the founding of the university in 1956, and the DanceUSF program opened in 1969. In 2002 the two performance-driven educational bodies combined to create the School of Theatre & Dance. You will be part of a community of more than 200 students who design, choreograph, write, collaborate, rehearse, and perform here to transform their passions into a career. Working closely with our nationally and internationally recognized faculty, you will build mentoring relationships that provide the support and guidance to strengthen your skills and confidence. Be it the professional world or graduate school, we provide the education, experience, and fellowship to help you achieve your goals.
