MFW 626 - Thesis Research and Writing, Visual Arts and Photography

Pulling from the prior three seminars, as well as each students individual research, this seminar asks students to critically engage with the big ideas or questions that inform their studio practice, and then learn how to present those ideas in written form. There are critical reading assignments, writing exercises and class discussions about both research tactics and the ideas born from that research. As the thesis essay is seen as a practical, useful document, this seminar helps students find ways to reflect and think deeply about where they have been and where they hope to go. (1 Credit)
