Location of Bilkent University

The M.F.A. program of the Department of Fine Arts offers the students options to concentrate on two studio areas and/or to concentrate on a theoretical study in art theory. The studio areas are painting and printmaking. The program encourages freedom of expression within a framework of regularly scheduled critiques and open studio classes, and centers around the individual student's work in progress. Both painting and printmaking today encompasses virtually any medium and students are motivated to explore the boundaries of their art making.

Students are encouraged to view their profession as an innovative path. They are advised to embrace the inevitable changes which occur in direction and destination as they seek and progress.

Graduate students are offered large studio space. Well recognized artists visit the faculty and offer seminars to graduate students. Twenty-four hour access to the facilities supports personal growth of the students. Emphasis is placed on twentieth and twentfirst century theory in both lecture and studio classes.


Contents

After the completion of at least 24 units of course work in two successive terms, the candidates must take two seminar courses in their area of interest and prepare and submit a thesis. The maximum duration of the program is five semesters.
