Bachelor of Arts - Theatre - Acting

The Bachelor of Arts in theatre at the University of Nevada, Reno trains students in a variety of perspectives.

Student actors profit from individualized mentoring by faculty directors, amplifying personal growth and collaborative creation. Because acting demands knowledge of psychology, history and language, the acting specialization is enhanced by a liberal arts education, complemented by a course dedicated to prepare students for career opportunities in the performing arts or graduate school.

Theatre majors who emphasize in Theatre Design/Technology receive individualized training and mentoring as backstage technicians, scenery and costume shop workers, stage electricians and as designers of scenery, costumes and lighting.
