Introduction

MFA Studio and MFA Critique (MCMA 557 and 558) form the core of the MFA program in Interdisciplinary Media Arts at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. MFA Studio is a two-semester sequence designed to introduce first year graduate students to a range of approaches, media, and strategies in contemporary practice. MFA Critique is a two-semester course for first and second year students to show studio projects to faculty and one another and to engage in an ongoing critical dialogue in the "oral tradition" of the MFA degree.
