Extended Accelerator - Bachelor of Arts - Theatre

Program Description

The Extended Accelerator Program (EAP) combines language, culture and academics to give students a deep understanding of life in and out of the American classroom and includes personalized English-language instruction and tutoring.

Students in the Extended Accelerator receive:

• A contextual curriculum that mixes language, culture and academics
• Exclusive access to a course focusing on life in the U.S. and in the local community
• A full year’s worth of college credits
• Extensive English-language tutoring, academic advising and student support
• Personalized English-language support specific to the classes they take

If a student wants to explore all theatre has to offer and even develop their own new works for the stage, they can consider the Theatre BA through the University of Utah. Through coursework in the fundamentals of theatre—acting, design, stage management, and other topics—and play development, students will graduate prepared to pursue careers in the theatre. The curriculum core offers classes in production, scenography, script analysis, the history of theatre, stage directing, playwriting, stage management, dramaturgy (the theory and practice of dramatic composition), readings in dramatic literature, and additional electives in theatre topics. The critical thinking skills, human understanding, and confidence that students receive from the Theatre program can also be applied to a wide number of other fields.
