DIGITAL COURSE BEGINS IN FALL 2026 AND CAN BE TAKEN AT YOUR OWN PACE!
Using Beyoncé as a case study, this course invites participants to explore four primary modules:
1. The Origins of Cultural Iconography & The Construction of Celebrity
2. Visual Albums & Storytelling as a Transformative Artistic Medium
3. Business, Power, & Industry Disruption
4. Legacy, Activism, & Global Influence
Students will unpack the historical significance of how Beyoncé has shaped what it means to be a living, legendary pop star and cultural force. Through critical engagement with her music, visual work, business ventures, activism, and cultural influence, students will develop a nuanced global perspective and explore how “Beyoncé” operates both as a noun (icon) and a verb (a model for impact, excellence, and agency).
