The M.F.A. in Illustration Practice has at its core a philosophy of necessary reexamination and reinvention, both in your work and thinking and in the paradigm of what it means to be an illustrator.

Our intent is to provide an environment for you to delve into your relationship to your work, to intelligently break existing perceptions and rules, and, taking advantage of technologies, and considering social needs and artistic perspectives, to be a pioneer in the future of illustration. This intense program of study helps students revisit their creative process and use of materials while awakening their abilities to chart their own course as entrepreneurs.

Program Overview

Illustration Practice is a field unbound by specific media yet rooted in storytelling and ideas that intellectually and emotionally engage the public. In this program, students are challenged to find new directions for the practice, making visual and intellectual connections that examine cultural meaning. The goal of the program is to create a laboratory that resists the pressure to follow trends.

In this two-year, 60-credit, full-time program you will:

• Investigate new materials and manufacturing models during the first year, 9-credit studio course, where students engage in workshops designed to spur creative and analytical thinking; Study a curriculum that includes two critical seminars, one humanities elective and two studio electives;
• Conduct research and writing that address concerns on the historical, social, and cultural contexts of illustration practice;
• Develop an independent, second-year thesis project using a medium appropriate to your personal direction and emerging illustration markets, including an exhibition and accompanying case study book;
• Produce work at a professional level with real-world applications to your career goals;
• Collaborate with fellow students, and professionals, and research centers including Dolphin Press & Print at MICA, the Center for Design Thinking at MICA, the Modern Graphics History Library at Washington University, and the Rockwell Center for American Visual Studies;
• Engage with full- and part-time faculty and visiting critics and artists-in-residence.
