在这里学什么？

The Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing & Poetics at the University of Washington Bothell is dedicated to helping each student develop their creative work through a course of study that encourages exploration and discovery.

We organize our curriculum into areas of inquiry rather than genres. In contrast to many MFA programs, our writers enjoy the freedom to experiment across genres and media as suits their creative purposes. Emphasizing experimentation and hybridity, our program invites students to participate in a community concerned with the pursuit of creative writing in a rapidly changing society.

The MFA poses the central questions of poetics, inquiring into the social, cultural, and technological aspects of writing to ask: How is creative writing an ethical, political and aesthetic endeavor? What forms might creative writing take in an interconnected, transnational society? How does new media alter the environment and possibilities for creative writing?

Each academic year kicks off with the Fall Convergence, a gathering of nationally and internationally renowned writers and artists to engage topics in contemporary poetics. The year closes with the Spring Festival, where graduating students share their thesis work publicly and receive a benedictory reading from a student-nominated invited speaker.

Program Highlights

• Focus on experimental writing and hybrid forms
• Vibrant roster of visiting writers, conferences, and festivals
• Evening program designed for students with jobs and other commitments
• Optional residency in second year
• Flexible part-time or full-time thesis completion
• Connections to Seattle’s thriving literary and arts scene

MFA Program Learning Objectives

• Develop creative work through a process that encourages exploration and discovery.
• Identify and activate poetics issues—why we write how we write—in relationship to your own writing and the larger field of creative writing and creative arts.
• Engage creative writing and creative arts as ethical, political, and aesthetic endeavors.
• Explore how new media changes the possibilities and environment for the production, reception, and dissemination of creative works.
• Inquire into the different forms that creative writing and creative arts might take in an interconnected, transnational society, especially in relationship to a diversity of cultures, languages, and peoples.
• Understand cultures and societies as dynamic constructs that enforce unevenly allotted orders of agency as well as enable differential vectors of power, as defined through gender, race, class, ethnicity, sexuality, age, abilities, and others.
• Become familiar with exemplary literary and art works and practices that center on the lived experience, creative and critical work of multiple peoples.
• Create an accomplished and integrated creative thesis and artist (or poetics) statement.
