Emphasis is also given to the development of an artist's statement and the proper techniques for photographic documentation. Required for digital arts majors, graphic design majors and BFA majors. Students concentrating in art history prepare a 10-15-page thesis based on a paper previously written in an art history course, and will take a short comprehensive exam.

Mandatory for New Media Production and Graphic Design. Can be taken in conjunction with ART 498 in order to participate in the BFA Senior Art Show.

A faculty member with sufficient experience in the subject matter teaches the class as an independent study or as a full course, depending on the number of students interested in similar topics.
