Dartmouth’s M.F.A. in Sonic Practice is a 3-year, fully-funded graduate program for composers, artists, and scholars working expansively with sound. The program draws together a close-knit community of makers and thinkers concerned with the visceral and social force of sound: its capacity to move bodies, shape cultures and stretch perception. Through one-on-one conversation with faculty, seminars, group critiques, and extra-disciplinary classes, students foster critical and technical skills to empower their creative practices and deepen their intersectional grasp of the aesthetics and politics of sounding and listening.
