As one of the nation's pioneering practice-based arts doctoral programs, this initiative enables students to conduct groundbreaking research blending various artistic mediums, performance, scientific approaches, and social engagement. Launched in 2007, Rensselaer's Ph.D. in Electronic Arts addresses the growing need for an interdisciplinary, practice-focused arts doctorate within academic institutions. The program attracts creative scholars seeking to incorporate multimedia, performance art, scientific methodologies, social interventions, or curatorial perspectives into their artistic research.
This doctoral degree recognizes original investigations that advance knowledge through a unique synthesis of artistic creation and scholarly research, where knowledge encompasses both theoretical understanding and practical artistic expression.
The program's foundation centers on each student's artistic practice, developed through specialized coursework, one-on-one faculty mentorship, and ultimately presented through a dual-component dissertation comprising both written analysis and creative work.
