Course Clusters in Arts
What is a Cluster?
A Cluster is simply a collection of courses that faculty have identified as doing something in common: covering similar topics or issues, addressing the same questions, offering overlapping ideas and approaches. Clusters involve a minimum of 4 programs or departments, and any number of courses from each.
Clusters are not credentialed鈥攖hat is, you don鈥檛 get anything 鈥榦fficial鈥� for following courses in a cluster. They鈥檙e simply a way for us in Arts to help you identify some of the areas of commonality and overlap between our many and varied programs and departments, identifying links that might not otherwise be obvious. Think of them as one possible roadmap through your Arts elective courses, allowing you to follow an interest from one course into other courses.
And check back often! We鈥檒l be adding clusters constantly, as faculty identify connections and develop new courses.
