Student Projects

The M.A. program in public humanities encourages students to develop their skills through group and independent projects. Some of these take place at the Center. Others are staged at different places on the Brown campus, or in the community, while others exist online. Projects include oral history collections, curated objects and spaces, historical interpretation, exhibitions, community collaborations, primary source research, public programs, and many other components of the public humanities.

Some recent student projects are listed here. Some are class projects, some ongoing Center projects, some work by individuals or groups of students.
