BA/BS in Visual and Performing Arts, Other

Collaborative Arts is an interdisciplinary arts degree at Tisch that cuts across performance, acting, dance, film, musical, visual art, emerging media, writing, theory and art history. Students are encouraged to experiment within and between disciplines. It is positioned as its own area of study rather than a sampler of the school's departments, with an emphasis on original work and live performance created by hands-on, cross-disciplinary making. The curriculum leaves room for a semester or full year abroad, and an internship course supports students who pursue placements in film, music, marketing, galleries and similar fields, although an internship is not required. Prospective applicants should consult the full bulletin entry, which lists the required courses, a sample plan of study and the policies that apply to a given entry year, because details can change between cohorts and are best confirmed with the department directly.
