*CfA: New MA programme “Folkloristics and Applied Heritage Studies” in
Tartu*
The University of Tartu (UT) in Estonia is pleased to announce the opening
of a new English-language master’s programme, “Folkloristics and Applied
Heritage Studies”.
This two-year programme is intended for graduates and professionals
interested in the concepts and workings of cultural heritage, folklore and
the heritage of crafts in diverse socio-cultural contexts, past and present.
“Folkloristics and Applied Heritage Studies” provides analytical and
practical tools to examine the processes of heritage production, the
particularity of intangible cultural heritage and its relationship to
folklore and everyday culture. Students also learn to recognise and
ethically apply cultural heritage as a social and economic resource and to
act as mediators between different interest groups in this field.
Students choose to specialise either in the analysis of folklore and
cultural heritage, or in the study and application of the heritage of
crafts.
The curriculum provides ample opportunity to gain diverse hands-on
experience and to tailor the content of study plans to chosen career paths.
An MA thesis or a more practically oriented MA project completes the
programme.
The programme is coordinated by the UT Departments of Ethnology, and
Estonian and Comparative Folklore, and the UT Viljandi Culture Academy
Native Crafts Department.
*The application deadline for fall semester 2017 is 15 March 2017.*
