Advising, mentoring, and critique in one-on-one and group meetings: Directed Study Blocks
are structured 3 hour periods designed for students to do research and develop and get
feedback on work that is self-directed. Students meet as a group and work with individual
members of the faculty to begin and follow through on individual projects and work that
falls outside of course assignments. Reflecting on your work in meetings with your studio
faculty mentor/advisors, Directed Study offers an opportunity to define both near and long
term goals. In-depth discussions of your work as they relate to your full range of courses
focus on building strategies for moving your work forward according to goals and path of
study you have defined for yourself. In group meetings peers discuss progress among one
another and develop invaluable skills for responding and giving feedback to one another
regarding the work of fellow students. Directed Studies also serves an important venue for
preparing for your Review board. A faculty signature and a written statement of intent is
required for registration.
