Illustration 5: Thesis
0.75 Credit(s)
Studio
Prerequisite: ILLU 3K02 Illustration 4 (minimum grade of 60%)
Based on a "Statement of Intent" drafted by students in Illustration 4 identifying personal areas of interest, this course is dedicated to the development of a thesis project- a self-directed conceptual and technical study of Illustration resulting in a significant body of work. Through extensive research of critical issues, historical precedents and contemporary explorations, students collect, analyze and reflect on their findings and develop the early stages of a comprehensive illustration project that continues into the winter semester. Brief class assignments, lectures and frequent group discussions assist in the progress of the project while students meet firm deadlines established early in the course.
Notes: Due to course content, it is required that students in this course register with the SAME INSTRUCTOR in ILLU 4K02 Illustration 6: Thesis in the winter semester.
Conditions: Requires a minimum grade of 60% to advance to Illustration 6: Thesis.
