Tisch School of the Arts

Programs for Undergraduate and Graduate Students

Summer study abroad programs at Tisch School of the Arts, one of the nation's premier centers for the study of media and performing arts, are designed to draw on the strengths of major peer institutions around the world. In each program, the artistic techniques and traditions of each country are emphasized during structured class time as well as field trips to performances or sessions with local artists. Students earn eight college credits per program.

Local master teachers, who are internationally renowned industry professionals, lead our courses for undergraduate, graduate, and visiting students. Practical skills and theoretical approaches specific to each destination offer unique specializations that may not be available anywhere in the United States.

In each of our programs, students immerse themselves in the local cultures, often inspiring beautiful photography, intriguing videos, and interesting diary entries. Visit our website for footage and photo galleries of Tisch study abroad.

While graduate students attend the same classes and lectures as undergraduates, they are expected to write a research paper for each course and to take full advantage of their professor's area of expertise in terms of advice, supervision, and use of research resources in each location.

The priority application deadline for all programs listed above is February 29, 2012. Applications submitted after the priority deadline will be considered on a rolling basis as long as space remains available.
