Cultural Production

[Molly M. Whittington]

A note from the Anthropology Department:

 

On Wednesday, Feb 1, 4-5.30pm in the Rabb Room, Lincoln-Filene
Center, we are hosting an information session about an exciting new MA
program on Cultural Production at Brandeis. It's a very exciting and
unique program, and should be of special interest to Anth majors.
Please come and find out more on the 1st from Mark Auslander, Director
of the Program, and some of his colleagues. Refreshments will be there.
I'm pasting a description of the program below.

Hope to see you there!

Rosalind Shaw
Chair of Anthropology

The new interdisciplinary M.A. program in Cultural Production at
Brandeis University offers rigorous interdisciplinary study of the
production, performance, and preservation of cultural forms and
practices, leading to the degree of Master of Arts. This Graduate
Program is dedicated to the critical exploration of questions at the
intersections of art, imagination, technology, space and politics.

The overall program of study facilitates the investigation of how
historical, expressive, and aesthetic representations are generated,
circulated, and interpreted in both local and global contexts. Students
may complete the program's degree requirements of eight courses in two
semesters; however, it is expected that many students will enroll
part-time, while keeping jobs at local-area institutions and
organizations. Enrollment will also be open on a course-by-course basis
for interested professionals or professionals-in-training.

For more information, please contact the Program director, Dr. Mark
Auslander (781.736.2214) or the Program Administrator, Ms. Laurel
Carpenter (781.736.2210).
