- The Master of Fine Arts (M.F.A.) in Visual Arts is a terminal degree and is the preferred degree for the practicing artist with a professional career in the visual arts. It is the recommended degree for college-level teachers of art and secondary school level as well.
- Students accepted into the M.F.A. program at WCSU select a concentration in painting, illustration, or interdisciplinary visual art. Students are encouraged to explore and expand the scope of their work within their concentration.
- Degree candidates will select an area of emphasis (painting, illustration, or interdisciplinary) and complete a minimum of 60 credits
- The core of the program is the student’s individual progress in the studio, leading to a professional level of mastery. The program is built on a series of individual applied studio courses of escalating intensity, interspersed with regular individual and group critiques with resident faculty and visiting artists. Each student presents a capstone thesis, which may include both exhibition and publication, as a final step prior to receiving the M.F.A. degree.
