IDES 711 Thesis Preparation

3 credits 45.0 hours
600 level graduate course

This graduate seminar addresses the individual professional interests of each degree candidate as they relate to the student’s thesis project. Informed by a range of design research methods and sensemaking actions, students will establish an argument, strategy, and timeline for the development and completion of a thesis project while identifying the broader socioeconomic context where they intervene as designers. The product of this course is the declaration of the thesis project topic with supporting research, the thesis action plan, and the composition of the thesis committee.

Open to Masters of Industrial Design majors only.
This course is not repeatable for credit.
