Founded in 1914, CMU’s School of Drama is a launchpad for Broadway stars, VR stage designers, and Oscar-winning sound artists. The conservatory BFA offers intensive acting, musical-theater, and design tech tracks integrated with emerging media courses—students might motion-capture Shakespeare one semester and design immersive holographic sets the next.
