SFAI offers internationally regarded MFA programs in Design and Technology, Film, New Genres, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, and Sculpture. Our fine arts programs reflect a legacy of studio-based practice that challenges students to consider the contemporary, historical, and theoretical practices of art. These programs are founded on the tradition of experimental studio practice, academic rigor, and interdisciplinary discourse taught by SFAI’s distinguished faculty.
SFAI’s MA programs in History and Theory of Contemporary Art, Exhibition and Museum Studies, and Urban Studies focus on the critical thinking and writing that stem from an in-depth understanding of theory and practice. The Dual Degree MA/MFA program is ideally designed for students who want to synthesize the intellectual and artistic facets of their creative work, and cultivate a large portfolio of tools as cultural producers.
We invite you to become part of a global community of artists and thinkers noted for their diverse, provocative, and innovative work.
