The Davis Center brings other disciplines, cultures, and perspectives into our theater-making and learning community. Under one roof, varied backgrounds and people converge to research and create. Students engage with faculty and global experts from myriad fields, and alumni from our first two decades become broad-based thinkers and artists.
The Davis Center enables students, professional artists, faculty and scholars to pursue research-driven art. Interdisciplinary collaborations foster new stories and fresh perspectives, just as our policy of opening auditions for all students creates ensembles that bridge across class years and experiences.
On campus, the Davis Center Community includes far more than only TPST majors and minors. Our survey of over 200 Alumni captured 84 different majors, minors and certificates. Explore the courses of study by clicking on the dots.
Of surveyed alumni, nearly half (47%) were double majors or had a minor or certificate. They study everything from psychology and international relations to computer science and physics. 15% had “only” one major.
Our Theater & Performance Studies degree does not compel students into artistic tracks, and after graduation, alumni enter a variety of fields. Across a wide range of career paths, our alumni credit the Davis Center with preparing them for…just about anything.
Our cross-disciplinary curriculum creates multiple professional opportunities. True to form, 74% of surveyed alumni in the arts categorize themselves in at least two ways.
24% of alumni in the arts participate in at least 4 of these ways
Our alumni craft careers and lives that combine multiple disciplines, art forms, and industries, making new opportunities and paths along the way.
