Doctor of Philosophy in Theatre and Drama

UC San Diego Theatre Dance offers a groundbreaking PhD in Drama and Theatre in conjunction with the Department of Drama at UC Irvine. The joint nature of the PhD program provides an unrivalled diversity of theatre faculty and affiliated faculty between both campuses available for coursework and advising. Within the context of the program?s twin focus on theory and history, an innovative structure permits each student to pursue a custom-designed curriculum that draws from a rich variety of seminars in faculty research areas that include: Theatre of the Americas (modernist and postmodernist theatre and performance, African American theatre and dance, Asian American performance, Latinx and Indigenous performance) and European Theatre, as well as Asian Theatre, Gender Studies, Intercultural Theatre, and Critical Theory.

PhD students take seminars at both UC San Diego and UC Irvine and write dissertations under the supervision of faculty at both campuses. In addition, UC San Diego's PhD students have historically received part of their financial support by creating publicity materials for productions staged by the department?s top-ranked MFA program. The scholarly, theoretical nature of the doctoral program thus exists alongside the thriving artistic scene of the UC San Diego Theatre District, which includes the La Jolla Playhouse. Students with backgrounds in theatre and interests in history and theory find the breadth of the UC San Diego Theatre & Dance department and the joint nature of the PhD program to be fruitful ground to prepare for a professional career in scholarship.
