The 2025 USITT Entertainment Design & Technology Workforce Demographics Study (WDS) builds on the 2021 study, which established a baseline for understanding the demographics of professionals working in entertainment design and technology.

As the first study of its kind administered by SMU DataArts, the 2021 WDS provided valuable insight into who makes up the industry. The 2025 follow-up expands on that baseline, offering an updated look at the workforce and exploring demographic trends across the industry.
