Interdisciplinary Opportunities

The MFA Program encourages students to study more than one genre of writing and to explore links between writing and disciplines such as music, the fine arts, history, journalism, modern languages, and the sciences.

As an outgrowth of its interdisciplinary emphasis, the UW MFA offers students the opportunity to elect specific concentrations.

The Native American and Indigenous Studies Program offers a graduate minor in Native American and Indigenous Studies.  Gender and Women’s Studies also offers a graduate minor.

We are currently working on re-establishing an affiliation with the Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources to enable MFA students to double major in creative writing and ENR. ENR also has a graduate minor.

Students are also welcome to explore individual course offerings in any department or college on campus.
