Such experience gained prior to transfer to UC Davis may count toward partial satisfaction of this requirement; transfer students should see the major adviser for an evaluation of your previous experience. While in residence at UC Davis, transfer students are required to participate in a minimum of five dramatic productions and that participation must include work in at least three of the four areas specified above, as well as running crew. |

| Graduate Study. The Department of Dramatic Art offers programs of study and research leading to the M.F.A. (acting, directing, design, choreography) and Ph.D. (performance and culture) degrees. Detailed information may be obtained by contacting the Graduate Adviser. |
