The Nonfiction Writing Program
The Nonfiction Writing Program at the University of Iowa awards a Master of Fine Arts degree to accomplished students of literary nonfiction. The 48 semester hour program most often takes three years to complete, and culminates in a thesis of at least 75 pages, either a sustained essay or a collection of shorter pieces.
Our program is a cooperative venture of the core faculty noted on this site, with visiting writers joining us regularly for a week or a semester at a time.
