| The School of Art + Design at Portland State University (PSU), Oregon's largest and only urban university, invites applications to its Master of Fine Arts in Contemporary Art Practice/Studio degree. Built around a core of research-intensive creative investigation, the two-year, full-residency program is dedicated to interdisciplinary experimentation and the exploration of ideas through the experience of making. Students are supported in a range of production disciplines, from the traditional to the emerging, as they consider the various ways art can live in and beyond the studio. We provide an environment conducive to challenging and rigorous study through a wide variety of resources including close ties with resident faculty; dialogue with visiting artists and scholars; seminars on current issues and contemporary art history; exhibition and travel opportunities; collaboration with students and faculty in other disciplines and a comprehensive teaching practicum. The School has multiple galleries, new computer graphics and multimedia facilities, a foundry, a welding studio, a printmaking studio with etching and lithography presses, a darkroom and wood and metal workshops. PSU's 50-acre urban campus serves as a laboratory for sustainable practices.
