Mission
The mission of the Bachelor of Arts in Theatre is to produce committed Christian graduates who are prepared to express, represent, and dramatize insights and ethical messages in performances. They illustrate through acting, directing, design, and criticism insightful interpretations of dramatic literature in performance, both popular and religious. These graduates demonstrate proficiency in both theory and praxis of the theatre arts discipline.

Upon completion of the University baccalaureate and major requirements, the Biola Conservatory offers the Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre. Obtaining a degree with this major requires 44 to 54 credits, depending on the concentration chosen.
