Washington University’s MFA programs empower students to expand their creative and intellectual reach. The MFA in Visual Art promotes rigorous inquiry and instills students with the agency and resiliency essential for the next generation of artists. The MFA in Illustration & Visual Culture combines studio practice in illustration and comics with academic training in material culture. We are looking for the best to join us in our new, LEED-platinum facility.
