Description:

The Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Media Production is a two-year, 51 credit hour program designed for advanced studies in the art of media production. Students may approach various forms of media of their choice—such as dramatic, documentary, and experimental film and video; new media; interactive media; and animation—through a range of artistic, aesthetic, technical, and theoretical skills and knowledge. Courses offer a combination of general and specialized study in media arts production. An intensive investigation of issues in media arts theory to develop the student’s level of cultural and artistic discourse at an advanced level will contribute to the shaping of sophisticated and versatile graduates from this program.
