[Nettime-bold] Announcing the MFA in Integrated Media Arts |
February 14, 2002 From: Hunter College President Jennifer J. Raab I am very pleased to announce that our new Master of Fine Arts Program in Integrated Media Arts: Advanced Studies in Nonfiction Media Making was approved by the CUNY Board of Trustees on January 28, 2002. We are optimistic about receiving approval from the New York State Education Department (SED) shortly. A truly innovative program, the MFA in Integrated Media Arts is designed to integrate advanced interactive media technologies with the expanding areas of nonfiction media, including news journalism, documentary, biography, commentary and criticism, to prepare students for positions of creative leadership in a wide range of contemporary media organizations. At the core of the program are production workshop courses in three creative clusters: WORDS (emphasizing journalism, script and treatment writing, and other forms of nonfiction media writing); VISIONS(emphasizing visual communication of stories, ideas and information); and CHANNELS (emphasizing designs for distributing and exhibiting media work, publicizing ideas and using media to enhance the quality of community interaction). Students will also participate in internships, interdisciplinary research and seminars focused on the interrelatedness of media and society. We anticipate that the new MFA in Integrated Media Arts will quickly become a premier program at Hunter, and its graduates will be highly sought after by the media industry in New York City and elsewhere. Applications are being accepted for Fall 2002 admission to the program. http://www.hunter.cuny.edu http://filmmedia.hunter.cuny.edu -- Andrea Polli Associate Professor Film and Media Hunter College _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list Nettime-bold@nettime.org http://amsterdam.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
