美国留学艺术硕士专业学位（MFA）及院校一览表
艺术硕士专业学位(MasterofFineArts，MFA)美国留学热门专业艺术硕士专业学位MFA翻成中文应该是创作硕士，而非字面上的纯艺术硕士，其所提供的主修相当多种，从雕刻，编织，绘画，设计，插画，室内设计，平面设计，动画，摄影，电影，到新近的网页设计，或是多媒体设计都是拿MFA的学位。&MFA的特色在于是创作领域中最高的学位，并没有博士学位，在美国设计界工作，MFA就是最高学位了，因此，能够拿到MFA是相当高的荣誉，不仅能找到好工作，同时也具有在大学教书的资格。&要申请MFA的入学许可I-20，较特别的是一定要附上作品集portfolio，这是学校评审你是否可入学的最大关键，其次才是在校成绩GPA和托福成绩，另外特别的是一定会要求财力证明及学费保证金。&MFA修业两年中有三分之二的课程要求创作(也就是要交作品啦!)有三分之一的课程必须学习艺术理论或是史学的部份(例如说19世纪摄影史等等。。。)，一定要修满60学分才能毕业，不过各校的要求有所不同。&在美国三千多所大学中，提供MFA学位的学校不算很多，大部份由专门的私人艺术学院提供.&在这类学校中，有两个特色就是台湾同学会并不多，还有不见得有校园。以芝加哥艺术学院为例，是位在芝加哥城区内的博物馆区，没有围墙围起的校园，只有分散的大楼。&念MFA一定要两年，如果想要一年就修完艺术领域的硕士课程，应该要修MA(MasterofArts)，如果想再修博士学位，通常是修艺术史或是艺术理论课程才有博士学位。&在两年中所需要的费用视学校所在城市而定，由于这类学校多为私人机构，故学费高昂，两年中估计含生活费等总计是台币160万到200万的开支，台湾学生多第一学期适应后，即在校内打工来补贴生活费用，在美国的艺术用品与电脑周边硬体价位是很高的，一把长尺可卖到台币一千元以上的价位，故建议自行携带艺术器材前往。&&(www.) 专家介绍说，一般来说，要修MFA学位必须具有BFA的资格，且电脑托福成绩要达213分(总分300)以上(备注:电脑托福213分(传统纸笔测验的550分)是进入美国研究所就读的普遍最低标准，此外，不必考GRE或是GMAT，除非学校有特殊要求)&&---------------------------------------------------------------------------------美国MFA院校介绍&AZ亚历桑那州&ArizonaStateUniversity-MainCampus/CollegeofFineArts亚利桑那大学艺术学院-ASU&CA加州&AcademyofArtUniversity旧金山艺术大学--AAU(旧称为AAC)&ArtCenterCollegeofDesign设计艺术中心学院--ACCD&CaliforniaCollegeofArts(原加州艺术与工艺学院)加州艺术学院_(CCA)&CaliforniaInstituteoftheArts加州艺术学院_(Calarts)&CaliforniaStateUniversity-LongBeach加大长滩分校--CSULB&ClaremontGraduateSchool(CA)-克莱蒙研究学院--CGU--TheCenterfortheArts&OtisCollegeofArtandDesign欧特斯艺术与设计学院--OCAD&SanFranciscoArtInstitute旧金山艺术学院--SFAI&SanJoseSt.University/SchoolofArt&Design圣荷西大学艺术与设计学院--SJSU&StanfordUniversity-GraduatePrograminArtHistory,StudioArtandDesign史丹福大学艺术与艺术史研究所&UniversityofCalifornia-Berkeley加州大学柏克莱分校-UCB&UCLA/SchoolofArtsandArchitecture/Dept.ofDesign洛杉矶加大艺术与建筑学院设计系--UCLA&UniversityofCalifornia-Davis加州大学戴维斯分校-UCDavis&UniversityofCalifornia-SanDiego加州大学圣地牙哥分校-UCSD&UniversityofSouthernCalifornia/SchoolofFineArts南加大艺术学院--USC&FL佛罗里达州&FloridaStateUniversity佛罗里达州立大学&CT康乃狄克州&YaleUniversity(CT)GraduateSchoolofArts&Sciences耶鲁大学&CO科罗拉多州&UniversityofColoradoatboulder科罗拉多州立大学-波德校区&GA乔治亚州&SavannahCollegeofArtandDesign沙瓦那艺术与设计学院--SCAD&IA爱荷华州&UniversityofIowa-TheSchoolofArtandArtHistory爱荷华大学-艺术与艺术史研究所&IowaStateUniversity：CollegeofDesign爱荷华州立大学设计学院&IN印第安那州&IndianaUniversity-Bloomington/CollegeofArts&Sciences印第安那大学艺术与科学学院&IL伊利诺州&SchooloftheArtInstituteofChicago芝加哥艺术学院--SAIC&UniversityofIllinoisatChicago-SchoolofArtandDesign伊利诺大学芝加哥分校--UIC&IllinoisInstituteofTechnology伊利诺理工学院--IIT&MA麻州&MassachusettsCollegeofArt麻州设计学院&BostonUniversity波士顿大学(BU)&UniversityofMassachusetts-Amherst麻赛诸赛州大学--UMA&SchooloftheMuseumofFineArts,Boston艺术博物馆附设学院--SMFA&MIT麻省理工学院(MIT)&&HarvardUniversityGraduateSchoolofDesign哈佛大学设计研究所&MD马里兰州&MarylandInstituteCollegeofArt马里兰艺术学院&MI密西根州&CranbrookAcademyofArt卡尔布鲁克艺术专科学院--CAA&CollegeforCreativeStudies-CollegeofArtandDesignCCS艺术与设计学院/创意研究中心&UniversityofMichigan-AnnArbor/SchoolofArt密西根大学&MO密苏里州&WashingtonUniversity(MO).wustl.edu华盛顿大学&MN明尼苏达州&MinneapolisCollegeofArtandDesign明尼亚波里艺术与设计学院--MCAD&NC北卡罗莱纳州&NorthCarolinaStateUniversityGraduateschoolofdesign北卡大学设计学院&NJ纽泽西州&Rutgers-NewBrunswick(NJ)罗格斯大学新伯朗士威校区&NM新墨西哥州&CollegeofFineArts,UniversityofNewMexico新墨西哥大学艺术学院&NY纽约州&AlfredUniversity(NY)-SchoolofArtsandDesignM.F.A.Program阿尔菲德大学&FashionInstituteofTechnology流行技术学院-FIT&NewYorkInstituteofTechnology纽约理工学院--NYIT&NewYorkUniversity纽约大学--NYU&ParsonsSchoolofDesign帕森设计学院--PSD&PrattInstitute普瑞特艺术与设计学院--Pratt&RochesterInstituteofTechnologic-Film/Video(Animation)罗彻斯特理工学院(影片及动画系)--RIT&SyracuseUniversity-CollegeofVisual&PerformingArts雪城大学视觉与表演艺术学院--SU&SchoolofVisualArts视觉艺术学院--SVA&OH俄亥俄州&OhioStateUniversity/Columbus/ArtDept.俄亥俄大学哥伦布校区艺术系--OSU&UniversityofCincinnati辛辛那提大学--UC&BowlingGreenStateCollege柏林绿州立大学-BGSU&ArtAcademyofCincinnati辛辛那提艺术技术学院--AAC&ColumbusCollegeofArtandDesign哥伦布艺术与设计学院--CCAD(BFAonly)&PA宾夕法尼亚州&UniversityoftheArts艺术大学--UA&TempleUniversity:TylerSchoolofArt天普大学-泰勒艺术学院&CarnegieMellonUniversity卡内基美隆大学(CMU)&PennsylvaniaAcademyoftheFineArts宾州艺术学院(PAFA)&UniversityofPennsylvania宾州大学(U.Penn)&RI罗德岛&RhodeIslandSchoolofDesign罗德岛设计学院--RISD&SC南卡罗莱纳州&ClemsonUniversity-GraduateSchoolofArts克莱姆森大学建筑艺术与人文研究所&TN田纳西州&MemphisCollegeofArt曼菲斯艺术学院--MCA&TX德州&TexasA&MUniversity德州理工学院--TAU&UniversityofTexas-Austin/CollegeofFineArts德州大学奥斯汀分校&VA维吉尼亚州&VirginiaCommonwealthUniversity-theSchooloftheArts维吉尼亚大学&WA华盛顿州&UniversityofWashington西雅图华盛顿大学&WI威斯康辛州&UniversityofWisconsin-Madison/ArtsInstitute威斯康辛大学-曼迪逊分校&WV西维吉尼亚州&WestVirginiaUniversity-Art&Science西维吉尼亚大学&更多美国艺术硕士留学，请来电或在线咨询！

- Located to the 7th floor of the Sullivan Center at 33 S. State Street, The Sullivan Galleries brings to Chicago audiences the work of acclaimed and emerging artists, while providing the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) and the public opportunities for direct involvement and exchange with the discourses of art today. With shows and projects often led by faculty or student curators, it is a teaching gallery that engages the exhibition process as a pedagogical model and mode of research.

Producing between 12 to 15 exhibitions of student work each year, SUGs strives to facilitate a creative, interdisciplinary exchange between students, professors, and arts professionals across the SAIC community and beyond. Paid student directors maintain the galleries with assistance from a faculty adviser. A volunteer student committee assists in maintenance and the selection of exhibitions. They have two locations: The LeRoy Neiman Gallery of the 37 South Wabash A and Gallery X of the 280 South Columbus Drive building. The two locations allow the galleries to cycle two shows simultaneously. They also maintain their own website.

The student government of SAIC is unique in that its constitution resembles a socialist republic, in which four officers hold equal power and responsibility. Elections are held every year. There are no campaign requirements. Any group of four students may run for office, but there must always be four students.
The student government is responsible for hosting a school-wide student meeting once a month. At these meetings students discuss school concerns of any nature. The predominant topic is funding for the various student organizations. Organizations which desire funding must present a proposal at the meeting by which the students vote whether they should receive monies or not. The student government cannot participate in the vote: only oversee it.
The student government is also responsible for the distribution of the Peanut Butter & Jelly Fund, Welcome Back to School Party, Monthly Morning Coffees, Open Forums, Barbecues in the Pit (the outdoor area at the entrance of the 280 S Columbus Building), Holiday Art Sale, and a Materials Event.

On May 11, 1988, a student painting depicting , the first black mayor of Chicago, was torn down by some of the city's African-American
— over the protests of many who attempted to block them — based on its content. The painting, titled "Mirth & Girth" by David Nelson, was of Washington clad only in women's underwear holding a pencil. Washington had died on November 25, 1987.
The painting was returned after a day, and the
(ACLU) filed a lawsuit against the Chicago Police Department and the aldermen. The ACLU claimed the removal violated Nelson's First, Fourth, and Fourteenth amendment rights. Nelson ended up receiving a monetary settlement for damage to the painting which occurred during its confiscation.
In February 1989, a student named "Dread" Scott Tyler draped the
across the floor for a piece titled "What Is The Proper Way To Display A U.S. Flag?" The piece consisted of a podium with a notebook for viewers to express how they felt about the exhibit. However, the podium was set upon a flag laid on the floor. In order for viewers to write in the notebook, they would have to walk on the flag. Viewers were occasionally arrested at the request of veterans. The school stood by the student's art in the face of protests and threats. That year, the school's federal funding was cut from $70,000 to $1 and many benefactors pulled donations.[]
