A course dedicated to studying Beyonce is coming to Yale University, allowing students to dig deeper into the "artistic genius" of the global superstar.
Titled Beyonce Makes History: Black Radical Tradition History, Culture, Theory & Politics Through Music, it will kick off next spring.
According to a description of the module, which is offered through the humanities and arts department, it will focus on her work from her self-titled album in 2013 to her current album, 'Cowboy Carter'.
The country album received 11 Grammy nominations on Friday, after being roundly snubbed at this year's Country Music Association Awards.
Its recognition has made Beyonce the most Grammy-nominated artist in history, with 99 nods in total.
Yale's pop culture-inspired course will also analyse Beyonce's performance politics and concert films, using it as a lens through which to examine black intellectual thought and activism.
