Senior Projects: Global Communication and Media is a portfolio course for seniors in the Communication Arts major. Students undertake major individual or collaborative projects under faculty supervision, which will result in the creation of a portfolio work. Workshop discussions and critique of proposals and work-in-progress is a central feature of the course. Students create teams for the purpose of developing, researching, and executing publicity, promotion, or advertising campaign, or major event, such as an exhibition or a conference, with special emphasis on community and non-profit organizations. Students must define and execute a project related to their area of concentration that will demonstrate their achievement. Students should meet with the instructor prior to the first class to discuss a project proposal. Projects should demonstrate a grasp of the critical issues of the student's area of interest as well as an understanding of the technological and theoretical aspects of their study.
