I. Visual Art Capstone, Internship and Honors Courses

Art 400 (5-7) .... Senior Project, General Class

NOTE - Course is open only to Visual Art majors and minors.

Prerequisites - (1) Senior standing in Art; (2) Last Academic Term of resident attendance

Art 400 is the normal final capstone course for senior art majors, as well as an option for senior art minors.
For any student in a senior art major program, Art 402 (see below) is an alternative choice - and perhaps a
greater challenge - for those students who show unusually exceptional ability in specific studio art disciplines.

Art 400 is a guided, specialized studio art project course with subject and medium(s) chosen by the student and
approved by the course instructor. Art 400 does not require that any projects undertaken within the course
(at least one, but no more than two) be confined to a single studio art discipline, but does recommend that all
courses of the specific discipline in which the student excels the best be taken.

Completed project works must be included in quarterly senior art honors exhibitions, and a portfolio of
professional quality color slides of the project must be submitted before the final grade is assigned. The
final course grade will be determined by a committee of the visual arts faculty.

If Art 400 is chosen as an art major's Senior Project, then the student can take Art 402 (see below) only once.

If and whenever possible, Art 400 should be taken during the student's final academic term.

Art 401 (5-10) ... Internship in Art Five (5) quarter hours, course; ten (10) hours, site experience

NOTE - This course is open only to art majors and minors, and can be repeated once for credit.

Prerequisites: (1) Senior standing in Art
(2) For each undertaking of Art 401, the student must have permisssion from the Visual Arts
Department Chair as well as from the supervising instructor.

Intensive, supervised experiences in a fully functioning art gallery or museum. Activities will include inventory,
maintenance, patron programs, docent experience and preparation of exhibits and publicity materials.

Art 402 (5-7) ... Senior Project, Special Honors Class Prerequisites and Conditions: See Below

NOTE - This course is open only to art majors and minors. It may be repeated once for credit, but only when
permitted, and when certain conditions are satisfied. If Art 402 is taken twice, then each successful
undertaking of the course must be in a different studio art discipline.

Art 402, an alternative to Art 400 as a Senior Art Project course, is open to those students who demonstrate
unusually exceptional ability in a specific studio art discipline. Emphasis is placed on enhanced refinement
of techniques already mastered in the specifc discipline, as well as the learning and mastering of new ones.

The student will complete a self-chosen project in the specific discipline with the guidance and approval of
course instructor. A maximum of two projects may be undertaken by students in an Art 402 course.

If the student should elect to take Art 400 as their Senior Project, then they can take Art 402 only once,
and must choose a studio art discipline different from any chosen for Art 400. Check further down this
page for any additional limitations on the taking of either Art 400 or Art 402.

As is the case with Art 400, Art 402 projects will be eligible for inclusion in the Honors Section of the Quarterly
Senior Art Exhibitions. Also, the same exhibition and supporting photo for grading requirements demanded of
Art 400 students are also demanded of Art 402 students.

The prerequisites and conditions for Art 402 are ......

» » » 1. Successful completion of the regular courses in a specific studio art discipline, as follows ....

Drawing -- Art 105, 205 and either 305 or 306 Students can elect to take both 305 and 306.
Watercolor Painting -- Art 220 and 320
Oil Painting -- Art 322 and 422
Layout, Lettering and Advertising Design -- Art 224, 324 and 424

Pottery (Ceramics) -- Art 330 and 430
Sculpture -- Art 332 and 432
Metal Design -- Art 334 and 434
Printmaking -- Art 336 and 436

» » » 2. Senior standing in Art, with a minimum over-all GPA of 3.20, as well as a minimum GPA
of 3.50 in the specific discipline's required studio art courses.

» » » 3. Submission of an Art 402 application form (available from the Office of Academic Records)
to the Visual Arts Department Chair at least six weeks in advance of the academic term in
which the student desires to take this course.

» » » 4. If and whenever possible, Art 402 should be taken during the student's last academic
term, especially if the course is the student's chosen Senior Project Option.

» » » 5. Should the student choose to take Art 402 twice, with one of the undertakings to count
as their Senior Project, then if and whenever possible, each course should be taken
during their last two academic terms.

Normally, only one Art 402 course will be taken in each such term. However, if all of the general
Bachelor program requirements -AND- all of the studio art major requirements except for the two
Art 402 courses have been satisfied before the last expected academic term, then both Art 402
courses may be taken during the student's last such term.

» » » 6. Joint approval by the course instructor, the Visual Arts Department Chair
and the Dean of the School of Fine Arts.

Majors and Minors: Studio Art and Art History

Special Note: Higher-Level Course Options

Any qualified students, based on previous experience, and with joint approval from the Visual Arts Department
Chair and the Dean of the School of Fine Arts, can enroll in a higher level course instead of the basic required
course offering. For example, in any program where Art 105 Basic Drawing is the normal requirement, a qualified
student can, with the appropriate approval, take Art 205 Intermediate Drawing instead.

Anytime a student desires to take 200-level courses in place those ones offered at the 100-level, positive proof of
their qualification, as well as joint Departmental approval will usually suffice. In situations where a student desires
to take 300-level courses in place of 200-level offering -OR- to take 400-level courses in place of 300-level courses,
intensive case studies, again jointly undertaken by both the Visual Arts Department and the School of Fine Arts,
will be conducted to determine if approval is warranted.

Students desiring to exercise a higher-level course option must submit an appropriate application form (available
from the Office of Academic Records) at least six weeks before the start of the quarter in which the particular
desired course is scheduled to be offered.

Not all courses are eligible for the Higher-Level Course Option. Students are strongly advised to
consult with their Visual Art Department advisor about the courses that are and are not eligible.
