创意写作美术硕士(低住院医师)

实习是每学期的重要组成部分, 每次9天的实习, 分别于初夏和一月在校园举行, begins the new semester with a demanding program of creative writing workshops in which student work is discussed and evaluated. 学生们还参加有关历史的手工讲座, 流派的理论和批评方法, 教师/学生演讲和一对一咨询, 除了来访作家的演讲, 编辑和代理. 学生与教师的比例很低，从不超过4:1，通常是3:1, 学生有从导师那里获得指导的重要途径. 此外，工作坊规模很小，学生作家从不超过6-10人. 这使得学生可以直接接触到有经验的作家和他们的同龄人, 提供一个激励和支持的作家社区.

为学生提供住宿和膳食，不额外收费. Summer residency housing is provided on the Converse campus and Winter residency housing is provided at a local hotel.

We strongly encourage 学生 to participate in the residential living option arranged for the program’s residency sessions, as it helps to involve the 学生 more directly in the 大学交流 community; however, 学生当然可以选择通勤或自己安排住房和膳食.

在这些驻地之间的几个月, 学生与教师导师(获奖作家)单独工作, with whom 学生 construct reading lists and to whom they send their creative and critical work for written feedback on a schedule determined at the time of their residency. Each student exchanges five packets of creative writing and 工艺 topic response papers with a mentor per term. The faculty/mentor responds within one to two weeks via mail or e-mail and offers instructive critiques for revision, 关于工艺和理论的附加阅读建议和相关观察.

学生必须完成四个学期的辅导才能毕业. 夏季/秋季辅导学期从夏季实习开始, 冬季/春季指导学期从一月份的住院医师开始.

在两年结束的时候, 学生们通过返回校园进行第五次培训来完成课程, 毕业实习. 在最后的实习中，毕业的学生要完成以下工作:

• 对他们的创意论文万博下载ios做一次报告和口头答辩
• 公开朗读他们的创造性作品
• 在教师导师的指导下，带领同学参加工艺研讨会.

选修第二流派强调一个学期

The 第二种类型选择 provides current Converse MFA 学生 the opportunity to study a second 类型 in addition to the major 类型 of study. Students 应用ing for approval to study in a second 类型 will enroll in an additional semester in the MFA program and complete an additional 12 semester hours.

Second 类型 学生 admitted into the optional emphasis will complete a full residency and mentoring semester in one of the three 类型 options: 小说, 诗歌, 或非小说.

在学生第三学期的第二类型驻留/学期期间, 学生在他们感兴趣的第二种类型参加实习工作坊. 在实习期结束后的辅导学期, 学生 complete creative and critical 工艺 work in that second 类型 under the guidance of a mentor with a specialty in that 类型.

This one-semester option adds one residency and one semester (a total of 12 credit hours) to a student’s total program of study and earns the student a second 类型 concentration in 诗歌, 小说, 或是记录在最终成绩单上的非虚构作品. The second 类型 emphasis will lengthen the program for those second 类型 option 学生 from four full semesters to five full semesters (including residency sessions at the beginning of each semester). 第五个, 毕业居住要求不会改变, 但将继续像往常一样，并将遵循学生的最后一个创造性论文学期.

Since it is highly important for 学生 to first establish themselves and make positive progress in the MFA program and in the study of their primary 类型 before broadening out, enrolled MFA 学生 are eligible for the second 类型 study option only during their third residency/mentoring semester (in other words, before the Critical Essay semester; both the Critical Essay and the Creative Thesis must be completed in the student’s primary 类型 in the final two semesters of the program).

对于选择第二种类型的学生, 研究生总学时将从48学时增加到60学时. This new option 给s our 学生 who are interested and equipped for graduate level work in a 类型 outside of their primary 类型 of study an opportunity to develop as a more well-rounded author and will help our graduates excel in an ever more competitive 出版 marketplace and in the academic job market.
