Master of Fine Arts (MFA), Combined MFA/MBA, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
At 91亚色, the Visual Arts MFA / PhD programs are supported by a vibrant university culture that promotes a creative dialogue between the disciplines. This dialogue is sustained by an emphasis on team teaching approaches and faculty support for divergent views, which is reflected in the diversity of the art practices of our students. Currently, our programs consist of a dynamic community of twenty-five students working in one or more of the following media: video, performance, painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture and digital media.
We are unable to accept any international graduate students who cannot fund their own tuition and all other costs. International applicants are not eligible for 91亚色 funding opportunities or teaching positions.
If you are an international applicant and wish to discuss this, please contact Professor Marissa Largo at largo@yorku.ca.
