MFA in Emergent Media is Seeking Creative Folk Eager to Learn!

Finally you can learn all about it!!!! We will be hosting an Information Session about the new Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Emergent Media that will launch in Fall 2010!!!! Anyone interested in finding out more about the program may attend this information session. You will get to hear from Mark Milne of graduate admissions on the ins and outs of applying, Ken Howell and myself on what the degree offers, the structure and classes, the faculty, and from advisory board member Coby Brownell of JDK on where media is headed. The program is awaiting NEASC approval but all other lights are green! Here is a link to the program: http://mfa.champlain.edu/

Join us for the MFA in Emergent Media Information Session at the Champlain College Emergent Media Center, located at 20 Winooski Falls Way in Winooski, Vermont. Join other Champlain students to hear an overview of the program and meet some of the faculty.

Then head over to the main Champlain campus, where you can hear a talk by a leader in this field. Heather Kelley, a game designer and advisor to our EMC's United Nations project will be at the Alumni Auditorium from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. as part of the Burlington City Arts program on Game (Life): Video Games in Contemporary Art.

A shuttle back and forth from the main to the EMC will be provided. To RSVP or learn more email Mark Milne: milne@champlain.edu 866-282-7259.
