All undergraduate students at Tisch will be exposed to the Department as Freshmen through the two course sequence, Art in the World and The World Through Art. For students who elect further study, Art and Public Policy courses are available to them as humanities, social science or elective courses. The minor would allow students to customize a suite of four courses (beyond the two taken through the core curriculum) that deepen their understanding of the worldly dimensions of art. Students could include one thematically linked course from outside the Department with permission of the administrative director.
Students will be able to exercise considerable flexibility in crafting a course of study that best reflects their own pursuit of how art links to the world and what social knowledge is embodied in the arts
To apply for the minor, students should complete a Declaration of Second Major/Minor form available through the Office of Student Affairs, 721 Broadway, 8th Floor, or available for download at the Academic Downloads page. Completion of requirements will be verified by the Department of Art and Public Policy, and the Office of Student Affairs.
