Faculty and students are drawn from a variety of backgrounds such as the arts, computer science, the humanities, the sciences, and the social sciences to pursue interdisciplinary artistic and scholarly research and production, in the context of a broad examination of digital arts and cultures. The MFA is a terminal degree in the arts and qualifies graduates for a variety of career paths including university-level teaching and research. Two years of intensive study culminate in the development of individual thesis papers and projects, which premiere in an annual MFA exhibition. danm.ucsc.edu | | Exhibition: April 26 - 27, 2014 May 1- 4, 2014 12:00 - 5:00 p.m. Reception: May 1, 2014 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. Reception sponsored by Bonny Doon Vineyard and UCSC Arts Division.
