    PhD Programs in Drama

    Drama studies are designed to prepare a student for the varied concepts surrounding theatre and performance. A student may study diction, dialects, accents and physical performance techniques. Other focus areas include dramatic art history, playwriting, production, direction and film studies.

    The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
