| Prerequisites Notes | Students entering the Master of Fine Arts program should in most cases hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts or a Bachelor of Music. Qualified applicants will be considered for admission to the program on the basis of academic standing and a proposal leading to an MA thesis or an MFA project. This proposal must clearly demonstrate the need for supervision in more than one area of knowledge, and must indicate the availability of resources and supervision in these areas. In addition to the proposed program, applicants should submit appropriate supporting material (portfolio, sample of scholarly writing, etc.) and a proposed format for his/her graduation project. An audition and/or interview may be required. Once students have begun course work a more detailed, formal proposal will be submitted to the Ad-Hoc Fine Arts Graduate & Interdisciplinary Committee for approval. | | |

| Description | The graduate programs in Interdisciplinary Studies in Fine Arts include a studies-based Master of Arts (MA) and a practice-based Master of Fine Arts (MFA). In both cases, students are required to complete projects which integrate knowledge from two or three distinct traditional disciplines one of which must be a Fine Arts discipline (i.e.: media production and studies, music, theatre, visual arts).
It is the philosophy of our program that traditional skills and specializations are usefully augmented and contextualized by a Fine Arts perspective and a cross-disciplinary approach. As society moves towards information economies, cultural and entertainment sectors are rapidly emerging as driving forces in change. In this environment, there is an opportunity to expand the role of the Fine Arts beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries to the areas of technology and science; social history; pedagogy; and consciousness and identity. The graduate program in Interdisciplinary Studies in the Fine Arts is designed to accommodate students who are motivated to pursue innovative projects in a rigorous intellectual environment that is supported by a flexible framework of coursework and an expansive network of research links to the university community.
