Students study lighting, sound, scene & costume design, construction, production skills, history, and basic makeup. Students choose a concentration in consultation with the Academic Advisor: Costume Design, Scenic Design, Light Design, or Production Technology. Acceptance into the Design & Technology program is by USU application, portfolio & interview process.
