Program Description

The Performing and Media Arts Minor encourages students to do focused yet flexible coursework in the department's inter-disciplines. This coursework enables students to draw connections between live and mediated forms of performance and production, as well as between studies and practices of these forms. Students pursuing the PMA minor work closely in consultation with faculty advisors to ensure that their work in the department is completed in courses that integrate performance and media and demonstrate the cross-pollinations between them.

Department of Performing and Media Arts Minors

The Department of Performing and Media Arts offers four minors. In addition, the Department administers the interdisciplinary Media Studies minor. The minors are open to all undergraduate students in the university, including those outside the College of Arts and Sciences, and require at least 15 credits per minor. To declare a minor, you will need to contact pma-dus@cornell.edu. All credit toward the minor must be from PMA courses taken at Cornell or from PMA courses taken with Cornell approved programs. Independent Study courses do not count toward any PMA minor.
