Immerse yourself in the works of Shakespeare in the Applied Shakespeare Program

Shakespeare play

Shakespeare enthusiasts unite!

The Applied Shakespeare graduate certificate program returns in spring 2022 and provides a wonderful opportunity to meet like-minded peers and engage deeply with the works of Shakespeare.

Throughout this 9-credit interdisciplinary program, scholars, teachers, artists and enthusiasts of Shakespeare can analyze and discuss plays in Colorado Shakespeare Festival’s upcoming season, such as, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, All's Well That Ends Well, Coriolanus and The Alchemist. Students will also examine the community-based work of Applied Shakespeare practitioners across the country, attend a variety of hands-on masterclasses taught by CU Boulder faculty and festival guest artists, or explore pedagogies, lesson plans, and exercises for making Shakespeare accessible for students of all ages and across multiple mediums.

Complete the certificate in as little as two semesters with fully online or hybrid coursework that is relevant to your personal or professional goals.

For those who do not wish to complete the entire certificate program, all courses can be taken independently of the program for 3 graduate credits per course.

To enroll, or not to enroll––there is no question
