The Performance and Performance Studies Minor is designed for students who want to incorporate performance perspectives into their primary art/design/architecture/writing practice and to learn new ways of understanding how all kinds of performance – from theater, media, and music to everyday life performances – affect how we see and engage the world. The minor involves two required courses and three electives; it may be declared at any time.
