Applications being accepted for Intermedia MFA program
The University of Maine Intermedia MFA program is accepting applications until Feb. 28 for the fall 2016 semester.
The Intermedia MFA program provides students with advanced study and practice in interdisciplinary art. It is a studio-centered creative interdisciplinary program committed to research, experimental technological production, a well as the individually guided development and production of hybrid forms of art such as time-based media, digital and video art, installation, performance art, artists’ books and multiples, conceptual art, community-based social art practices, net art, and other new forms that students may generate.
The MFA program hosts a visiting artist series that brings a diversity of talent, perspective and experience through regular workshops, performances, lectures and studio visits.
Graduate students also have access to the Innovative Media Research and Commercialization (IMRC) Center. The IMRC Center is a state-of-the-art facility with more than 1,500 square feet of studio, tools and facilities. Opened in 2013, the center is a hub for learning, creating and producing.
Several scholarship opportunities are available at UMaine, including departmental graduate assistantships to qualified students, full scholarships to students of Native American descent, and discounted in-state tuition and fees for all New England residents.
Application information is on the websites of the Intermedia MFA program and UMaine Graduate School.
