The MFA program offers a cross-disciplinary curriculum completed over 26 months, covering three summers and two academic years. The Interdisciplinary MFA is designed for individuals from around the world who seek a challenging curriculum that spans disciplines. We seek students who ask tough questions, and show evidence of creative risk-taking. Prerequisites include an undergraduate degree (BFA preferred) from an accredited institution, an ongoing creative practice, and a working understanding of contemporary art and culture. Creative practitioners come from a variety of backgrounds. The most important MFA prerequisite is an engaged, ongoing artistic practice. The Nomad MFA (Interdisciplinary Master of Fine Arts) is a low-residency, cross-disciplinary program. This course of study prepares artists for a life of engaged studio and civic practice and reflects the dynamic balance of production, inquiry, and cross discipline collaborations in contemporary art, and the world at large. The objective of this MFA is the development of each student's art practice and the creation of an expanded toolkit through our innovative curriculum. This objective is achieved through engaged mentoring and through high-impact, field-based classes in contemporary art, ecology, place and culture, indigenous knowledge systems, and the technology spectrum from craft to code.
