Our advanced degrees prepare students for careers in a variety of academic and public settings. Doctoral degrees (Ph.D.) in either Folklore or Ethnomusicology allow a depth of focus on particular research topics. We also offer Ph.D. minors for students in other fields.
Ph.D. Degrees
Public practice concentration
We offer a graduate concentration in public practice that emphasizes research, critical orientations, and practical skills in the areas of public education, preservation, and presentation.
IU’s Department of Folklore and Ethnomusicology provided me with access to a community of scholars and staff that have been invaluable to my growth as a politically engaged academic.
