Minor Capstone Studio

Catalog description

A structured studio for Minors in Graphic Design culminating into a final self-authored project on a topic that engages each student's declared major. The Minor Capstone Studio applies each student's accumulated knowledge of graphic design towards the development of a self-authored project on a topic that engages his or her declared major. Each project will exercise the student's capacity to synthesize visual form and written components through the application of design methodology, and culminate their findings into a completed, presented thesis. Coursework will also include an introduction to communication theory, contemporary communication paradigms, the changing notion of audience and context, and formal research methodology.
