Themed Entertainment Association
TEA @ CSUN
A student community for designers, storytellers, engineers, artists, and producers building the next generation of immersive experiences.
About Us
A student-led club built around our shared passion for themed entertainment.
We are a group of CSUN students who are excited about the themed entertainment industry and wanted a place to connect over that interest. TEA @ CSUN gives us a space to meet people who care about the same things, learn together, and start putting our knowledge into themed entertainment through visits, projects, and creative work.
What we do
Explore the themed entertainment industry from the inside out.
We explore themed industries to understand what it takes to enter the field, build friendships with people who share the same interests, create ride and experience concepts, and compete in design competitions.
Meet Your People
Connect with students who love rides, worlds, guest experience, creative technology, engineering, design, and entertainment.
Build and Compete
