About University of Delaware MFA Program:
The MFA program at the University of Delaware maintains a thoughtful, ambitious level of discussion about what constitutes powerful artistic practice. The MFA curriculum consists of three distinct yet interrelated parts of graduate experience and education: research, practice, and discourse. Students are expected to maintain a dedicated studio practice that challenges and extends their investigations and to participate actively in critique that encourages the open exchange of ideas in a collaborative environment. The program provides for extensive individual studio time, supported by one-on-one discussions with faculty and visiting artists.
