PERFORMANCE STUDIES MINOR

The School of Literature, Communication and Culture offers a Minor focusing on performance, broadly construed. The Performance Studies Minor (PS) entails the study not only of the traditional performing arts but of anthropological and sociological conceptions of performance as an intrinsic part of human life.

The courses for the PS minor are evenly divided between courses specifically designated as Performance Studies and courses in Film Studies, Media Studies, and Theatre Studies. Students pursuing the minor will receive a solid grounding in Performance Studies as a discipline, the opportunity to explore its connections to related disciplines according to their own interests, and the opportunity for hands-on experience of performance-making.
