4 semester hoursUndergraduateLectureNUpath CEusually offered: fall, springtypical days: ThBostonTraditional
Offers students an opportunity to develop a refined, process-driven media art project that combines personal vision, research, and scholarship. Centers on the creation of a comprehensive capstone project that highlights a specific area of interest and supplements a body of work that has been accumulated through the media arts curriculum. The course structure is based on weekly goals and reviews that are partially determined by the specific and unique aesthetic and technical demands of an individual student’s capstone project. A well-planned project statement serves as the method for contextualizing and articulating the unique goals of the capstone project. This advanced studio course provides preparation for graduating students in their careers as professional artists and creative practitioners.
