In order to graduate from Boston College with a Bachelor of Arts in Theater, students must successfully complete a minimum of twelve three-credit courses in theater. In addition, they must complete six theatre production labs. Ideally, they should complete the following six courses by the end of their sophomore year. These provide the context and foundation upon which more advanced courses are built.
- CT062 Dramatic Structure and Theatrical Process. CT062 is offered only in the fall. Sutdents unable to register for this class may substitute CT060 Introduction to Theatre.
- CT101 Acting I.
- CT140 Elements of Theater Production I (Spring Only)
- CT141 Elements of Theater Production II (Fall Only, Pre-Requistite CT140)
- CT275 and CT276 History of Theater I and II.
Students must also complete six additional upper-level courses designed to provide more in depth knowledge and experience. Two 300-level courses must be chosen from the Performance and Production category. Another two 300-level courses must be chosen from the Literature, Criticism and History category. The remaining two are General Electives.
