This minor is available to students at both the Florham and Metro campuses and is ideal for students interested in all aspects of Theater including performance/acting, writing or production. It is also a good minor for those interested in developing their oral communication, presentation, interpersonal, and networking skills as part of a major program in an area such as Health Care (FDU Health), Business, Film, Communication, Psychology, Education, or Humanities. The minor is 15 credits, so pairs well with any major at FDU.
