ABOUT SOCDOC
Founded in 2005, the Social Documentation (SocDoc) Master of Fine Arts program is a unique degree designed to train media makers committed to social change and to documenting communities, cultures, issues, and individuals who are marginalized in the current landscapes of representation. Housed in the Department of Film and Digital Media at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and the only program of its kind within the UC system, the SocDoc M.F.A. emphasizes ethical practices and meaningful community involvement to explore urgent issues through socially engaged documentary practices.
