Foundation Courses and “Sections”
In the fall semester all first year students take the studio courses Form and Figure, Contemporary Studio + Creative Action, and Color and Design, in addition to two liberal arts courses. Students enrolled in the Foundation program take their studio courses with a “section,” or group of students who, as a learning community, share the same weekly schedule, faculty, projects, and assignments in the fall semester.
Sections allow students to bond well with their classmates and learn quickly in a familiar environment. Please review the available sections to determine which options you prefer, as some options include evening and online courses, and others include Digitially Enhanced course offerings. During your advising session, you will learn more about the classes you will take in fall, and be able to ask questions. Your Academic Advisor will also let you know which day of the week you will take your Liberal Arts and Science courses, depending on the studio section schedule you select. Please note that section availability is subject to change, so please confirm during your advising meeting.
