Students in the M.F.A. in the Writing and Producing for Television program take part in the TV Writers Studio, a one-of-a-kind program that gives its students a real world TV writing experience. Classes are held at the state-of-the-art Steiner Studio, a 305,000-square-foot Hollywood-style production and support facility in the historic Brooklyn Navy Yard. The program was created by Norman Steinberg, an Emmy Award Winner and veteran screenwriter whose credits include Blazing Saddles, My Favorite Year, Johnny Dangerously, Mr. Mom, and many others. Pure and simple, the goal of the TVWS is to educate and to develop highly skilled, experienced professionals with strong portfolios who will be prepared to begin careers in the television industry as writer/producer/entrepreneurs. Both undergraduate and graduate students in the Department of Media Arts also have the opportunity to take part in exciting, challenging internships in New York City, the media capital of the world.
