Overview

The Creative Visual Arts degree programme is delivered by the Cornell University.

Key Facts

Students work closely with a special advisory committee consisting of the Department of Art and affiliate faculty of their choosing, in addition to an average of 15 artists and critical practitioners that come to the College of Architecture, Art and Planning (AAP) to lecture and conduct individual M.F.A. studio visits. The Department of Art hosts two distinguished Teiger Mentors in the Arts annually and provides both experimental and formal exhibition opportunities in Ithaca and New York City. The program also features access to exceptional resources and facilities, an exploratory international travel experience, and generous tuition remission.
