Certificate in Curation and Cultural Programming (CCP)


The CCP certificate draws on the American Studies department's strengths in public humanities, digital humanities, folklore, curation, and visual and material culture. Over twelve credits, the CCP certificate prepares students to apply humanities frameworks to careers in event management, project management, museums and other cultural institutions, libraries, nonprofits, education, and more.

Requirements for Curation and Cultural Programming Undergraduate Certificate Program (12 credits total):
  1. Complete 6 credits of Folk Festival-related courses from the list below with a grade of C or higher
  2. Complete 6 credits of other certificate-eligible courses from the list below with a grade of C or higher
Folk Festival Courses (6 credits required):

AMST 350 Folk Festival Curation (3 credits): Teaches students the fundamentals of curating a public event, from developing research questions, to conducting background research, to finding community partners and considering ethical issues. The class culminates in a formal presentation and report of curatorial recommendations used to guide further research for the festival.

AMST 263 American Folklore (3 credits): Surveys the genres, methods, and topics of the discipline of folklore. Students will learn to analyze folk arts in relation to the histories, values, and cultures of North America. This class focuses on ethnographic methodology and engages students in conducting a fieldwork project.

AMST 264 American Folklife: Communities and Cultures in America (1.5 credits): Introduces students to the ways folk traditions, customs, art, and life have been incorporated into public sphere of the United States in institutions at the national and local level. Students think critically about how life and art are characterized as "folk" or "traditional" and question how people and practices become recognized as part of our country's cultural heritage.

AMST 449 (1.5 credits) and 450 (3 credits): Principles of Festival Management: A project-centered internship in which students coordinate the Folk Festival through a variety of individual internship positions such as graphic design, logistics, finance, and community relations. Each student will design and execute a project related to their role, culminating in a portfolio. The course will also introduce students to the fundamentals of hands-on public humanities and nonprofit practice, including public relations and marketing.
