Pursuing a Theatre Arts major offers both an exhilarating creative journey and a versatile liberal arts education. The comprehensive curriculum prepares students for diverse career paths within California's expansive entertainment sector. Graduates have found success in live performance, design, film, television, corporate training, media, broadcasting, public relations, marketing, legal professions, and education. Theatre education cultivates both artistic abilities and profound insights into human relationships and societal issues. Each academic year, the Theatre Arts Department presents three to four mainstage productions alongside experimental lab shows, some of which are entirely student-led. Students also gain performance experience through outreach programs at schools, libraries, and community venues.
CSUSB's Theatre Arts Department fosters comprehensively trained artists with strong ethical foundations and marketable abilities. The program requires all majors to complete foundational courses in performance techniques, production, and theatrical history before specializing in one of five tracks:
