This gives the program a unique draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI made a very intentional choice to go to UW Bothell\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/ias\/\">School of Interdisciplinary Arts &amp; Sciences<\/a> because I greatly admired the work of the faculty and poets there,\u201d said Brent Cox (MFA \u201915). \u201cThey were incredible role models and teachers, always encouraging me to experiment with multimedia, publish my work and network with others in the field.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This combination of curriculum design, engaged faculty and a tightknit community of alumni and peer mentors creates an environment that fosters individual growth and creative success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To explore how this process can unfold, the MFA program hosted a virtual panel in May that featured alumni from the UW in both Bothell and Seattle. The panelists also devoted much of their time to answering questions from current students about careers in education, the arts, publishing and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Researching the possibilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Career options for those with an MFA can range from becoming a published author to serving as a teacher to founding a research institute. As the May panelists noted, the avenues students can explore are seemingly endless and sometimes unexpected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Cox-Brent-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28722\" width=\"355\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Cox-Brent-2.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Cox-Brent-2-277x300.jpg 277w, https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Cox-Brent-2-600x651.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 355px) 100vw, 355px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One such example is Cox, who is now teaching at the University of Buffalo while simultaneously pursuing a doctorate in Poetics. As part of this pursuit, he started The Topological Poetics Research Institute, an autonomous research collective focused on poetry and poetics. Since he launched the institute in 2018, he has published two of his former classmates from UW Bothell as well as other people from dozens of different cities, states and countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with publishing authors, Cox and the TPRI host Ecopoetics workshops that bring together poets, multimedia and movement artists, theorists, philosophers and researchers to collaborate creatively. The projects born from these workshops have led to esteemed publications and conference presentations \u2014 including one at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/2019\/08\/29\/and-now\">UW Bothell\u2019s &amp;NOW Conference in 2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor me, poetry is a lifelong pursuit,\u201d Cox said. \u201cIt has been my passion for as long as I can remember, and I would not be the poet I am today if not for UW Bothell.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Writing about writing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Hackett-Liezel.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28719\" width=\"308\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Hackett-Liezel.jpg 616w, https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Hackett-Liezel-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/headshot-Hackett-Liezel-600x750.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 308px) 100vw, 308px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Liezel Hackett (MFA &#8217;17)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Liezel Hackett has found great success as a writer since graduating from the MFA program in 2017.
