Overview

Master of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art is designed to foster both interdisciplinary and discipline-specific dialogue by engaging students in a set of core department-wide requirements, interdisciplinary opportunities, and discipline- specific courses and curricular “tracks.” Within the Master of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art students develop a personalized program of study within established curricular parameters, and with the consultation and approval of the student’s faculty committee. Students develop a more personalized program of study within curricular tracks reflecting the School of Art’s varied programs in Ceramics, Drawing and Painting, Fiber, Graphic Design, Illustration/Animation, Metal, Photography, Printmaking, Sculpture/4D, and Wood. MFA with Concentration in Studio Art is centered on the following goals for student learning outcomes: Independently develop a significant and ongoing body of work in response to a range of challenges, and produce a culminating professional exhibition focusing on an aspect of studio art or design. Integrate the student’s creative practice or area(s) of specialization with historical knowledge and current issues from relevant disciplines. Demonstrate an awareness of current developments in the student’s field of specialization, and develop work that contributes to the expansion and evolution of that field. Articulate artist statements effectively and produce a written document that successfully functions as a companion to the student’s culminating exhibition. Communicate clearly and effectively in written and verbal forms to the art and/or design communities, the public, and in teaching situations. Utilize advanced technological capabilities for creation, distribution, documentation, and/or preservation of works. Demonstrate a basic knowledge of bibliographic and information resources associated with the major field(s) of study.
