Students will meet with instructor in small group setting with the class instructor on a weekly basis to discuss related topics of interest, including but not limited to: Internet privacy, network neutrality, network source code implementation.

Examines the history and philosophy as well as purposes and characteristics of mixed methods research, types of research problems addressed, major mixed methods designs, data collection, and analysis strategies.

This course is designed as an introduction to the field of testing, assessment and evaluation in second language education (bilingual, foreign language, and ESL settings).

Exploration of form, content, function, strategy, and problem solving by integrating digital media, art production, and interdisciplinary visual design methodologies. Students will engage in various intermediate and advanced level studio projects using industry standard software to create and prepare final work for screen, print, and digital fabrication. Topics may include both practical and conceptual applications of data visualization, visual identity, product development, publication design, user experience, motion design, and interactive projects.

The Junior/Senior Seminar explores unexpected and non-traditional approaches to collaboration, with a focus on interdisciplinary practices. Together, we will investigate and redefine the role of the collaborator and the artist. Practices, traditions and histories will be analyzed in an ongoing cycle of discussion, reading and making. An emphasis will be placed on developing concepts and imagery in relation to contemporary art practice and theory. Participants may work in any medium, format or discipline.

This practicum is geared towards students interested in preparing effective job search tools, resume and mini portfolio of creative work. Students who have previously taken an internship in design or creative fields develop a presentation that includes work samples from the internship experience. Additionally, this practicum includes guest speakers from the university, local organizations, and creative industry geared towards students' exposure to the professional workplace for artists, makers, creative technologists, and designers.

The second of a two semester sequence. Animation techniques using digital tools as applied to film, video, music and tehcnology. Animation software (Maya) and professional compositing programs are used. Development and design of personal work is stressed. Emphasis is on creativitiy and professionalism. Studio course.

Through demonstrations, presentations and critical discussions, an introduction to techniques in photo silkscreen, and the potential to realize works that incorporate concepts from photography, drawing, and painting.

This course focuses on the analysis and practice of communication design and serves as an introduction to integrated design production. Students will work with various software applications including Adobe Creative Cloud and experiment with hands-on fabrication in the iterative design process. Students should expect to engage in studio tutorials and apply both theoretical principles and original research to the creation of final projects.

In-depth exploration of techniques and materials including zone system, large format, and non-silver processes. Slide lectures, discussions, and readings. Prerequisite: ART 230 or consent of instructor.
