Interdisciplinary Program
Theater and Performance Studies
Program in Poetry and Poetics
The Program in Poetry and Poetics is overseen by an ad-hoc committee of faculty from various departments. It draws together some of the resources at the University currently devoted to the teaching and study of poetry and poetics. The University offers courses devoted to the writing of poems, courses in the history of poetry from different periods and in different languages, and courses that focus on particular poetic styles. The aim of the Program is to coordinate our various approaches and practices and help students at all levels to pursue work that crosses disciplines and discourses.
Program in Medieval Studies
The faculty in Medieval Studies advises departments and interdepartmental degree-granting committees and students in the planning of courses of study essential to medieval specialization in any field. Students specializing in a medieval field will take their advanced degrees under the auspices of a department or interdepartmental degree-granting committee and must submit their applications to the department or committee in which their primary interests lie.
