Artist Apprentice Internship I

Open only to matriculated students who have completed 24 credits, including at least 5 credits in art, and are recommended by the Department. Students interested in the program should contact the Department during the semester prior to registration. Students may register for one course per semester (AR-903 or 904) and may take up to a total maximum of 4 credits in the Artist Apprentice Internship. Departmental permission required. The Artist Apprentice Internship provides an opportunity for the student to gain practical paid or unpaid experience as an apprentice with an individual practicing artist (painter, sculptor, photographer, etc.), or under the supervision of an artist in a workshop or studio approved by the faculty supervisor. The Internship will afford a meaningful experience within the artistic area, and where appropriate, actual creative work will be produced. A written report of the experience will be required, as well as an evaluation of the student by the artist or workshop/studio supervisor. The faculty supervisor will hold periodic conferences with the student, will oversee assignments, and will be responsible for the final evaluation of the student's work.
