Assignments can be proposed by students with faculty approval, or students work from assignments presented by faculty. Professional illustrators can serve as mentors for students. Contemporary illustrators and illustration will be studied to further an understanding of the field. Students will also be expected to become knowledgeable of professional organizations that support the illustration industry. All assignments will be positioned in the context and expectations of "real world" work and in preparation for thesis work.
