Harness the power of artistic language and performance
The department of human communication and theatre at Trinity University is a single administrative unit with two complementary, but relatively independent, academic programs, each with its own major and minor. Students following each track learn theory through a well-balanced curriculum and have chances to apply what they learn through participation in theatre performances, forensics competitions, and academic conferences.

Human Communication
The human communication department emphasizes the study of human communication as a humane, artistic discipline grounded in personal choice and examines how people develop, adapt, and transmit messages within and across various cultures and channels.

Theatre
The theatre department hones artistic discipline in acting, directing, and design for theatre while enhancing students' historical and analytical skills through an appreciation of theatre history and dramatic literature.
