Master of Arts in Arts Administration Dual Degree Program
The Indiana University Bloomington, School of Public and Environmental Affairs and the Department of Folklore and Ethnomusicology offers a dual degree, Master of Arts in Arts Administration and Master of Arts in Folklore and Ethnomusicology. This degree is intended for a range of students, especially, although not exclusively, those interested in leadership and administration in museums and festivals. The two programs are each of national and international distinction. The dual degree gives students an opportunity over the course of three years of full time study (with a total of 60 credit hours), to earn degrees from each of these distinguished programs, combine classroom and practicum work from both programs.
