San José State University

The Department of Film and Theatre prepares students for successful careers and leadership roles in performance and media. We develop artists, technicians, educators and scholars of the highest possible caliber. The entertainment industry is one of the largest contributors to the national economy, and performance media are some of the strongest influencers in our society. To produce and distribute cultural works and to influence cultural dialogue requires an educated, liberal arts-oriented workforce. Our programs include BA degrees in Radio/Television/Film and Theatre Arts and an MA in Theatre Arts. Our teaching facilities include a three-camera HD television studio, 24/7 radio station KSJS-FM, 12 post-production editing suites, 11 audio editing suites, a black box theatre, a proscenium theatre, a full scene shop, costume shop and lighting and sound production studios-all supported by an outstanding faculty and staff of artists, managers and technicians
