UCSC Visual Studies Program

[jayelbe]

Hello all,

I have heard that the U. California at Santa Cruz has started a new PhD program in Visual Studies, I wonder if anybody out there knows anything about it; how it started, why, what exactly is Visual Studies, if it is related to Art History and how?

Many, many questions, hope somebody want to clarify things out for me, I believe it's quite interesting.

Thanks!

I'm bumping this thread, now two years later, in hopes that a conversation can be re-started. I'm currently on a short wait-list for Fall 2011 and am hoping there's still some hope of getting off of it. Do the two people who posted results mind sharing their intentions on whether or not they are attending? Santa Cruz is my absolute first choice.
