Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Lethbridge invites applications for
the Master of Fine Arts in Theatre and Dramatic Arts.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>The liberal
education orientation of our undergraduate Drama program is complemented by the
more specialized focus of the MFA in Theatre and Dramatic Arts graduate
degree. Launched in 2009, the MFA in Drama accepts only one or two students
each Fall, for an individualized and fully integrated experience within the
Department. Supervised and instructed, mentored and guided by faculty and
staff who are practicing artists, dedicated scholars, and experienced
professionals, the student completes course work and studio-based activity. The
thesis is comprised of both the creative work and a written statement,
balancing the active acquisition of practical skills with academic inquiry.
State of the art theatre facilities and a lively community of arts and culture
provide the student with excellent opportunities to study broadly and to find
their own creative voice. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>The MFA
degree is a two-year, full-time, studio program. The University of Lethbridge
is committed to providing adequate financial support for all graduate students
and, therefore, students may be eligible to receive $1,000 per month for 24
months of full-time study.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
