The Annual MICA Halloween Party. / Discussing projects with peers is a key element of collaboration among students. GRADUATE SUPPORT Graduate students need another kind of support. Many have already established themselves, while others seek to pivot away from the career path they are on and follow their passions along a creative trajectory. And just as it demands of its students, the College’s faculty has responded to gaps in art and design graduate education— creating one-of-a-kind programs that embrace community and social engagement at their core. Programs such as the MA in Social Design program push designers to work with numerous constituencies and use design (online, print, or environmental) to solve problems, while the MFA in Curatorial Practice program turns engagement into an artform, enabling students to curate their own site-specific exhibition based on the unique goals and outcome requirements of a location partner. MICA moved last year to ensure that its graduate students have the type of environment their aggressive workload requires, and began the $20 million-plus renovation of the Graduate Studio Center on North Avenue and the adjoining building at 1801 Falls Road. The North Avenue building adds 25,000 square feet of academic space and upgrades an additional 95,000 square feet— almost three thousand of which is devoted to publicly accessible gallery and exhibition space. The extra space could not have come at a more opportune time. The College spent much of last year recruiting and admitting a record number of graduate students, projected to grow 33% in fall 2012 compared to fall 2011. The collaboration among the record number of undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and administrators on MICA’s campuses— and online— creates a unique type of graduate who can visualize solutions to problems and mobilize people and resources to actualize artistic vision. More and more each day, that type of professional is what the world needs. Whoever is working with a MICA student has an asset that no one else has.” MICHAEL PATTERSON Associate Dean of Student Life & Judicial Affairs MARYLAND INSTITUTE COLLEGE OF ART 2012 ANNUAL REPORT 17
