Emily Carr University of Art + Design is introducing a first-of-its-kind Low-Residency Master of Fine Arts (MFA): Critical Ecological Practices cohort program. This two-year graduate program is delivered in a flexible format that allows students to study from their home community. The program covers topics related to climate justice and cultural transformation. “The degree will engage the climate emergency, climate racism, foodways, biophilia, marine life, walking-as-method and fieldwork through contemporary writing and artwork that is multidisciplinary, thoughtful and expansive,” explained ECU Faculty of Graduate Studies Associate Dean Randy Lee Cutler. “This cohort encourages students to think outside the box in terms of their thesis project and how their research might consider public engagement in innovative ways.”
