For their capstone experience, MFA students complete and present a substantial MFA project demonstrating a synthesis of craft, artistic vision and conceptual rigor, as well as professional competence in their selected research area. Students document the project with disc and written documentation, presenting one copy to the Department of Dance for the Music and Dance Library. The MFA oral examination includes a discussion and defense of the synthesis of craft, artistic vision and conceptual rigor as demonstrated in the project.
