BA in Theatre Arts
University of Mississippi — Oxford, MS
About this program
The Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Arts at the University of Mississippi offers students a comprehensive education in theatre with flexibility to explore multiple disciplines within the field. Unlike the more specialized B.F.A. programs, the B.A. allows students to engage deeply with theatre while maintaining the option to pursue additional majors or minors. Students develop critical thinking, analytical, and creative skills through coursework in theatre history, dramatic literature, acting techniques, design, and production. The program emphasizes hands-on experience, with students engaging in departmental productions, student-led initiatives, and collaborative projects that span acting, directing, design, stage management, and film. The curriculum balances academic study of theatre as an art form and cultural phenomenon with practical training in performance and technical skills, preparing graduates for careers in theatre, film, education, arts administration, and related fields.
