Thesis Synthesis
Parsons School of Design: School of Design Strategies
CRN: 1968
Credits: 9
This course supports the final development and integration of thesis work. Building on the conceptual grounding of Thesis Seminar and the exploratory work of Thesis Studio, students advance a cohesive body of work that reflects their questions, values, and orientation to practice. Emphasis is placed on iterative making, critical reflection, and positioning the work in relation to broader social, cultural, and political contexts. Students receive regular feedback from faculty and peers to refine their practice. The course runs in parallel with Thesis Forum and Thesis Writing Lab, which supports the written and public-facing components of the thesis.
