BA/BS in Teatro

The Theatre programme at Universidad de Valparaíso, part of the Faculty of Architecture, emphasises contemporary theatre practice and specialisation. Students choose from four specialisations: theatre teaching, theatre direction, dramaturgy and theatre production. The programme combines research, creative work, outreach and engagement with the community through academic and extracurricular activities. Graduates receive a bachelor degree in theatre along with a professional title as an actor or actress, qualifying them to contribute to art, culture and education at regional, national or international level. The programme encourages creativity, critical reflection and a dialogic relationship with the surrounding environment. Applicants should note that admission includes a special entrance test. Students take part in productions, workshops and collaborative projects that connect classroom learning with the stage. Graduates are prepared to create, direct and teach theatre in a variety of professional contexts.
