Folklore

The Folklore Program at the University of California, Berkeley, offers a Master's Degree in Folklore and houses the extensive Folklore Archives. This program is designed to provide graduate students with a competent knowledge of both the materials of folklore and the various methods of studying these materials. The program is an interdisciplinary one in which faculty members from both the humanities and the social sciences participate. The scope of the courses is international. However, students may specialize in a particular genre, e.g., folktales, or in a particular area such as Russian folklore.
