Film and Animation BA, Animation MFA: combined degree

The MFA degree is the highest degree available in Animation. Our combined BA-MFA in Animation degree offers FDU students the option to complete both the Bachelor and Master degrees in Animation. This program is designed for talented, highly motivated students seeking specialized training at the terminal degree level in addition to their undergraduate education in animation. The curriculum culminates in a major Thesis work, incorporates motion capture and virtual reality technology, and also promotes career readiness. Students may apply to this program at any time from their entry into the BA in Film and Animation program up until the beginning of the senior year of their undergraduate studies.

During the first three years, students in the combined BA-MFA program take undergraduate classes that are required of students in the BA in Film and Animation program (3D Animation Concentration, 2D Animation Concentration, or Video Game Animation Concentration). In the junior year of undergraduate studies, students in this program are required to submit a portfolio of their best work for review. In the senior year of undergraduate studies, students in this program take 12 Master’s level credits (included in their undergraduate tuition) as well as complete the remainder of their undergraduate courses. To transfer graduate credits completed in the undergraduate senior year into the MFA program, a grade of B or better is required. Those credits will be applied to the undergraduate degree as well as the graduate degree.
