This course prepares students for the final semester of thesis when they fully develop and complete a final exhibition/project of a new distinctive body of work. During Thesis I, students begin to research, develop, clarify, and sharpen and deepen their thesis proposal through dialogues, critiques, reading, and other activities with members of a Core Thesis Faculty. Thesis I encourages independent, critical thinking and requires students to reflect on their work to date—and their work in the future—with an understanding of historical, theoretical, and conceptual contexts.
