The BFA Scenic Technology at UIUC equips technologists to translate visionary designs into safe, efficient stage realities. Students calculate rigging loads, program automated turntables, and weld modular truss for touring concerts. Integration with the Grainger Engineering machine shops means fluency in CNC, CAD, and Mechatronics. Alumni lead Broadway automation, themed-entertainment fabrication, and drone-light-show logistics.
