Where THFM-3802 counts
Counts toward 1 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:
- THFM 3-YEAR BA IN THEATRE AND FILM (STAGE MANAGEMENT)
Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 50 of 208 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.
