The MFA in Television, Film and Theatre (TVFT) is a three-year, terminal degree program that prepares students for diverse professional and academic careers in content creation, acting, and writing in the narrative media. The MFA degree, in conjunction with extensive professional experience, qualifies students to work and teach in these fields. Students in our program will learn current industry business practices and gain ample hands-on opportunities to develop a creative voice and vision as they work on stage, set, collaborative projects, and culminating projects while applying real-world skills. In addition to a core of praxis-centric courses, the MFA in TVFT program also includes coursework in the theory and aesthetics of theatre, film, television, and new media along with the history and politics of narrative.

Historically, screenwriters, TV writers, and playwrights have stayed in their lane. But not anymore. In the last several years, and with the explosion of television and streaming services, there has been enormous crossover of feature film writers and playwrights into television. With over 450+ TV shows being produced each year, the medium needs great writing talent, wherever they can find it.

The Writing Option prepares students to navigate all three fields, seamlessly, and expands their possibilities for success once out in the professional world.
