Learning outcomes
The follow-up Master's degree course focuses even more on specific qualities and skills of the student. When assigning and solving tasks, the student's individual dispositions, skills and interests are taken into account, having respect to their ideas of future professional career too. Pursuant to specification of personal approaches and plans of the students, the course will be based on assigned tasks and their individual fulfillment in the form of independent analysis and discussion.
After completing the final work for the first semester of the Master's programme of study at the Studio, the student is able to describe and defend their own project. They can explain basic ways and principles of the solution; they can design their own installation and presentation of their work. The student is capable of their own opinion, as well as of consistent elaboration of the suggested solution. They can develop their own presentation of the graphic solution of the task, and are able to describe procedures they have used to implement it. The student can prove independence when defending their opinion on the shape of the given visual work. The student can discuss their work with the expert committee.
