In the application documents, the applicant's portfolio is often regarded as an evaluation point. Historical evolution of extended data:
Carrying out Master of Arts (MFA) education is an important part of China's art degree and postgraduate education reform, which will play a positive role in promoting the transformation of high-level art talent training mode and educational concept, cultivating high-quality art professionals, meeting the people's growing spiritual and cultural needs, prospering and developing China's cultural undertakings, and building a well-off society in an all-round way.
In the past 20 years, the reform and development of degree and postgraduate education in art in China has trained a large number of high-level professionals in the field of art in China and made important contributions to the cultural and artistic undertakings in China, especially the research and teaching of art.
However, for a long time, the outstanding problems in the cultivation of high-level artistic talents are that the training specifications are single, and the training types are mainly academic, which does not well reflect the characteristics of art and the growth law of artistic talents, and cannot well meet the social needs.
Because artistic creation has a strong artistic ability and a long professional development cycle, the professional learning mode runs through the primary school, middle school and even university stages, but the enrollment mode, training mode and degree awarding standard of graduate students in China are not conducive to the selection and training of such talents.
