Studio Art M.F.A

(60 semester hours total)

The Studio Art MFA provides the means for candidates to develop as contemporary visual artists. Through a conservatory approach, candidates acquire the skills necessary to master technical and formal interests, mature their understanding of form and content, consider innovative problem solving, create sophisticated aesthetic statements, and engage in professional practices.  Further explorations in critical analysis, research methods, and contemporary theory provide the context in which students join these elements into a holistic philosophical, aesthetic and practical knowledge of the discipline. 

Admission Requirements

Acceptance into the MFA program requires the successful completion of an M.A. in Studio Art (30 semester credit hours) and a positive recommendation by a faculty review committee.
