Graduate Capstone

Catalog description

This course serves a culminating experience in which students apply knowledge and skills gained from their graduate experience to a complex visual communication problem. Working with a subject matter expert, students produce a body of artwork to communicate a complex medical topic. The work may be static two-dimensional illustration, three-dimensional illustration, 2D or 3D animation, an interactive or virtual experience, or some combination thereof. In the Spring semester of Year 1, students select a topic and identify a subject matter expert. In Fall and Spring of Year 2, they produce the bulk of the work. Students present their completed projects at the end of Spring semester of Year 2.
