What is the difference between
Master of Fine Arts and Master of Science?
Master of Fine Arts is the professional
program for students who seek the development of professional
skills such as design, model making, and computer aids design.
Students must deomonstrate their works as a project before graduation.
On the other hand, Master of Science is for the academic degree
in research. Students must take a thesis in order to graduate.
Why does this program cooperate
the non-design fields such as Physical Therapist, Sport Scientist,
Information Technologist, and Social Scientist into the program?
This program is an interdisciplinary
approach as a key for innovation. The knowledge from many fields
can generate an innovation. As what we know that design is a
field embedded in many areas, the design goal is to create an
artifact or product that is the result of problem solving. The
more integration of many disciplines, the more innovation.
