The FMA San Francisco Program provides undergraduate and graduate students with academic, experiential learning and professional experiences in new media technologies, film, art, and ecology that are unique to the San Francisco Bay Area. Internships are available in Berkeley, San Francisco, and Silicon Valley. The University of California, Berkeley campus serves asour base for coursework, housing, and special events.
