B.F.A Lighting Design Webster University

Program Description

Webster University’s Sargent Conservatory of Theatre Arts offers a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Lighting Design, one of only a few programs whose productions are designed entirely by undergraduate students; faculty input on production work is strictly advisory. Design students acquire production experience necessary for their degree and simultaneously build exciting, varied portfolios. The combination conceptual work in the design classroom coupled with practical shop and stage work creates a unique opportunity for artistic and professional growth. Our curricular sequence aims to improve each student’s artistic skills. Students majoring in Lighting Design pair design classes with fine arts and light technology courses throughout their time at Webster. Many students opt to also study abroad or do an internship during their third or fourth year at Webster.
