Thesis 2: Collection
Spring 2027
Taught By: Jun JY Hong and Anna Lerner-Zwick
Section: C1

CRN: 3204

Credits: 6

In the second course in a two-part course sequence of senior major project study, students will draw upon experience gained at earlier stages of the program. Self-initiated thesis projects encompass theoretical and practical design practice. Thesis allows students to research and develop an area of interest, and to demonstrate progressive ideas and abilities of breadth and depth. It also requires the student to plan and develop a proposal/brief, based upon the synthesis of exploration, ideation, and research. Students are required to develop an individually-negotiated approach to a design question or issue; and to manage, communicate, and document their processes through research/reflective journals and technical notebooks, where applicable. Students are required to register in the same section of Thesis 1 and 2, for continuity and progression of learning.

The Collection pathway challenges you to consider approaches to body, gender, age, and size, amongst others, in order to develop new narratives, definitions and terminologies within a clearly defined visual aesthetic beyond traditional contexts. Deep exploration in terms of research and process towards unexpected outcomes across gender is encouraged. Students are encouraged to redefine the meaning of a Collection.

In the second course in a two-part course sequence of senior major project study, students will draw upon experience gained at earlier stages of the program. Self-initiated thesis projects encompass theoretical and practical design practice. Thesis allows students to research and develop an area of interest, and to demonstrate progressive ideas and abilities of breadth and depth. It also requires the student to plan and develop a proposal/brief, based upon the synthesis of exploration, ideation, and research. Students are required to develop an individually-negotiated approach to a design question or issue; and to manage, communicate, and document their processes through research/reflective journals and technical notebooks, where applicable. Students are required to register in the same section of Thesis 1 and 2, for continuity and progression of learning.

Deep exploration in terms of research and process towards unexpected outcomes in all forms is encouraged.
The Collection pathway challenges you to consider approaches to body, gender, age, and size, amongst others, in order to develop new narratives, definitions and terminologies within a clearly defined visual aesthetic beyond traditional contexts. Deep exploration in terms of research and process towards unexpected outcomes across gender is encouraged. Students are encouraged to redefine the meaning of a Collection.
