专业概况

在这里学什么？

The study of folklore and folk life involves examination and analysis of traditional expressive culture in all its forms including verbal, musical, material, and customary. In every society, agricultural and industrial, rural and urban, folklore is a vital part of life. The discipline has close affinities with literature, anthropology, sociology, history, geography, linguistics, philosophy, ethnomusicology, and psychology.

Program Requirements (36 hours)

Plan A (Thesis Option)

This option provides advanced knowledge of the theoretical and methodological aspects of folklore and folk life. Course work will emphasize the history of the discipline, field research techniques, and surveys of various folklore genres. It is designed to prepare students for both academic and public sector professions and for further academic research.

Plan B (Public Folklore Option)

This option permits individually planned programs (with advisor) stressing those combinations of course-related research, applied skills, and writing experiences that will best prepare individuals for their personal and professional goals.

Plan C (Historic Preservation Option)

While firmly grounded in the folk studies curriculum, the historic preservation option introduces students to the multiple facets of historic preservation and cultural conservation theory and practice. Internships with a variety of local, regional, and national institutions will also provide opportunity for practical work experience in historic preservation.
