Scenic design displays visual images, creates physical spaces, and translates theatrical literature. It analyzes text, music, and historical forms. Scenic design is part of visual production, creating environments and backdrops for theater, film, parades, concerts, ephemeral art installations, and television.

This minor in scenic design provides an understanding of the process and practice of designing, visualizing, and constructing for the production of stage sets. Design projects will be worked on in collaboration with the Theatre, Dance, Music, and Visual Arts programs.
