THEA 401(F), 402(S) Independent Senior Practicum
All majors in theatre must enroll in the Independent Senior Practicum (401 or 402) in order to complete a Senior Project. Majors will work with the department chair and the theatre faculty during junior year to determine the goals and scope of the project, and, when a project is approved, the chair will assign a Project Advisor, who will then be instructor for the independent study course. Senior projects may be artistic or scholarly in design and execution, and should grow from students' experience within the curricular and extra-curricular work in the department. They may build on previous academic achievements, or venture into new territory, but should be conceived as a capstone experience within the theatre major. Students may propose collaborative senior projects in groups of two or more. If such projects are approved, students in such a group will either be assigned one or multiple Project Advisors to oversee the work. In any case, each senior will be responsible for fulfilling a unique and specific set of requirements for the course as set by the advisor at the start of the semester. Students accepted into the Honors Program in Theatre are exempt from the Senior Project requirement.
