The course takes the form of a seminar and joint consultations on a specified topic. The Spring MA Practicum aims to open a creative project with an overlap into artistic research and related disciplines. For example, major discovery projects and other events are used to select the topic. A study trip or intensive concentration with overlap into other disciplines is an integral part of the experience. A recommended outcome may be an author's book proposal that prepares students for a component of the state final exam.
