  ABOUT DANM
 
 The Digital Arts and New Media MFA Program (DANM) at UC Santa Cruz serves as a center for the develop-ment and study of digital media and the cultures they have helped create.
 
 Faculty and students are drawn from a variety of backgrounds such as the arts, computer science, the humanities, the sciences, and the social sciences to pursue interdisciplinary, artistic, and scholarly research and production, in the context of a broad examination of the digital arts and cultures.
 
 The MFA is a terminal degree in the arts and qualifies graduates for a variety of career paths including university-level teaching and research. Two years of intensive study culminate in the development of individual thesis papers and projects, which premiere in an annual MFA exhibition.
