About this Program

The Theater Education Undergraduate Certificate from Temple University is an opportunity for students interested in teaching to improve their presence in front of a class. It also prepares them to add theater and drama to the range of subjects they can teach. The certificate includes the four courses that comprise the Pennsylvania Department of Education-approved Theater Endorsement.

For students pursuing areas of study outside of theater, this certificate provides a chance to develop an interest in arts education; gain theater experience; and further valuable professional skills such as collaboration, confidence in public speaking and creativity.

The Certificate in Theater Education allows a student to gain theater training which would enable them to take on additional responsibilities once attaining a job teaching another area. Skills acquired from the Certificate in Theater Education include confidence in public speaking and presentation, creativity, collaboration, professionalism and empathy, which are qualities enhanced through the study within the Department of Theater coursework.
