基础项目

概述

All first-year students in the 艺术与设计学院 take classes through the 基础项目. These courses help you to build a groundwork of 概念上的 and technical skills necessary to excel in any of the school’s programs of study. The coursework is research-based with a focus on four sections: Structure, 描述, 图像, 和功能. You’ll participate in one lecture and four studio courses, where you’ll get to create across 2D, 3D, 和4D模式.

This is a unique opportunity to gain professional insight and direction early in your development. The Foundations instructors integrate studio practice with the history of criticism of art and design. They also promote and enact a diverse definition of artist and designer such as critic, 作家, 教育家和挑衅者.
