Minors

Theatre Minor

Any student pursuing a recognized academic major at WVU may choose to pursue a minor.
Students majoring in a variety of subjects may find a minor in Theatre a rewarding challenge as well as a practical study for careers in the public sector, law, politics, or arts administration, to name a few.

By focusing on three broad areas “history/theory, performance, and production” the minor provides students with an overview of theatre and the opportunity to complete elective courses in areas of greatest interest.

Any student wishing to pursue a minor in theatre must submit an Intent to Pursue a Minor form available in the Division of Theatre and Dance Office in the Creative Arts Center.
