A two-semester sequential
capstone course for majors, with a focus on the planning and preparation of a
senior exhibit and the investigation of other professional skills. Group
seminars include portfolio presentation, framing, interviewing, grant
writing, and graduate school application. Individual creative research
projects focus on development of a thesis and slide talk to accompany the
final body of work exhibited in the HFA Gallery during the spring semester.
Students participate in a portfolio review by the studio art and art history
faculty, concentrating on work from the major medium and other work completed
since the Second-Year Portfolio Review. Time of the review is arranged
through the discipline coordinator. |

Rationale for |
THE SENIOR THESIS PROJECT
COURSES REPLACE ARTS 4881 AND 4901 (SENIOR REVIEW AND SENIOR EXHIBIT), AND
PROVIDES A GRADED SENIOR CAPSTONE EXPERIENCE (OTHERS WERE PASS/FAIL. COURSES
ALSO INTRODUCE PRACTICAL SKILLS TO THE MAJORS IN CAREER DEVELOPMENT, A
WRITTEN THESIS COMPONENT, PUBLIC LECTURE, DIGITAL PORTFOLIO IN CONJUNCTION
WITH THE ESTABLISHED REVIEW AND EXHIBITION. STUDENTS HAVE BEEN REQUESTING THE
INFORMATION REGARDING CAREER SKILLS ON AN INFORMAL BASIS, AND THIS WILL BE AN
APPROPRIATE MEANS TO STREAMLINE THE INFORMATION AND PREPARE THEM FOR FUTURE
POST-GRADUATE OPPORTUNITIES IN THE ARTS. FACULTY ALSO SEEK A COMPONENT TO THE
STUDIO ART MAJOR IN LINE WITH OTHER COPLAC ART PROGRAMS AND THAT REFLECT THE
QUALITY OF THE STUDIO ART PROGRAM WITHIN THE OVERALL MISSION OF UMM. |
