Graduate Student Job Placement and Career Information
Pursuing a terminal degree in theatre is both an educational and a career choice. We believe that it is important to let prospective and current students know as much as possible about the career outcomes of our graduates. The following sections provide information about job placement of our MFA and PhD graduates, as well as resources available to graduate students as they plan for careers after graduation.
