Master of Applied Arts: Emily Carr University, Canada
The Emily Carr University of Art is located in Vancouver, British Columbia.
The Master of Applied Arts (MAA) program offers a professional degree that prepares students to engage in the expanding fields of design, media and visual arts within the cultural and creative economies.
This 21-month full-time program delivers core curriculum that combines intensive theory and research seminars with rigorous studio classes where students are exposed to advanced exploration in their respective disciplines. The program admits a limited number of students each year to the three streams of the program – design, media and visual arts. Students learn to locate their own practices within broader fields of inquiry through writing projects, critiques of studio work, presentations and an internship.
Master students who work in a range of disciplines and come together from around the world and create a unique environment of interaction and exploration. They benefit from access to broad-based resources and extensive facilities in traditional and new technologies. A diverse and dedicated faculty, as well as a host of visiting artists and lecturers, support and encourage individual student research and production.
