Through a combination of lectures, workshops and labs, students will gain an understanding of the contexts within which work is produced and publicly presented. Emphasis in the fourth year is on demonstrating professional level abilities in the areas of critical thinking, proposal writing, project production, and the development of a public presentation strategy.
