WelcomeWelcome to the School of Dance, Theatre, and Arts Administration at The University of Akron, where undergraduate and graduate students explore and expand their educational and cultural horizons through comprehensive investigations of art and life. At the undergraduate level, the B.A. curricula in dance and theatre focus on technique and creative exploration within a broad liberal arts context. The B.F.A. degree in dance prepares talented students for professional careers in dance performance and choreography. The Modular Master Degree program in theatre, designed for advanced students of theatre arts, is structured so that the program can be completed in intensive five-week sessions over the course of three summers. This program is particularly popular with teachers desiring to complete a graduate degree in theatre without having to take leave from their jobs. The graduate program in Arts Administration is one of approximately twenty-five programs across the country with a curriculum designed to prepare students for successful careers in the business of not-for-profit arts. We are beginning our second year in our wonderful new home. This new facility includes seven technology enhanced dance studios, including The Francia Holliday Albrecht Dance Performance Studio; administrative and faculty offices for our Dance, Theatre Arts, and Arts Administration programs; scene and costume shops; technology enhanced classrooms including a design lab/studio; and training room, physiotherapy, and locker room facilities. We are also in the developmental stages of phase two of our building expansion that will include a new 450-seat theatre supporting music, dance, and theatre performances and productions.

If your exploration of our website prompts questions, or if you would like to arrange to meet with us and tour our facilities, click on the contact link at the left for e-mail and telephone contact information.
