AMST 605 - Practicum in American Visual and Material Culture


Fall or Spring 3 Staff.

The practicum requires permission of both the instructor and specialist host prior to enrollment. It combines an individual learning experience in one area of hands-on or curatorial study with related directed readings. Students should propose a practicum at least one semester in advance of projected enrollment. In some cases the practicum can be combined with an assistantship assignment at a cultural institution. Ideally the chosen topic should relate to the student’s long-term professional plans. During the course of the semester students develop a research or bibliographic essay on their specialty.
