About Pratt Institute Pratt Institute, located in Brooklyn, New York, is home to more artists than any other city in the world, and home to one of the best art, arch­itecture, and design schools in the world.

Founded in 1887, Pratt Institute prepares its nearly 3,300 undergraduates for rewarding and successful careers in art, design, fashion, architecture, and writing.

With a 25-acre campus in Brooklyn and a campus in Manhattan, the art and literary capital of the world, as well as an upstate extension campus, Pratt offers students access to the resources of both—museums, galleries, restaurants, vintage shops, and more. Its state-of‑the-art facilities ensure that students have the best possible equipment, materials, software, and space for their work.

The Institute’s landscaped campus in the historic Clinton Hill neighborhood of Brooklyn is home to all of the fourand five-year programs except Construction Management, which is located on the Manhattan campus, where all of the Associate Degree programs are also located.

A wide variety of majors and concentrations—from traditional arts to the most contemporary digital arts and design—enables students to explore all their interests with electives in different departments, leading to work that is informed by different disciplines. Pratt’s programs are consistently ranked among the best in the country. Pratt’s faculty and alumni include the most renowned artists, designers, and scholars in their fields.

As one of the world’s multicultural epicenters for arts, culture, design, technological innovation, and business, New York City provides Pratt students with an exceptional learning environment that extends beyond the Pratt campuses, from internships at design firms and art galleries to museums and concert halls.

Why Is Pratt the First Choice for So Many Students? ll A choice of more than 25 undergraduate majors and concentrations in four schools (Architecture, Art, Design, and Liberal Arts and Sciences), most of which are ranked among the top five or 10 in the country. ll Opportunity to take electives in other departments or pursue a minor. ll A world-class faculty of successful working professionals who connect students with internships and jobs. ll A beautifully landscaped 25-acre Brooklyn campus just minutes from Manhattan with historic buildings, tree‑lined green spaces, a contemporary sculpture park, and outstanding facilities. ll A Manhattan campus in the heart of Chelsea’s art district that offers associate’s degree programs and construction management.

ll A beautiful upstate New York extension campus, PrattMWP. ll A choice of multiple residence halls on campus and on-campus dining, where 94 percent of freshmen and 51 percent of upperclassmen choose to live.

Cultural Partnerships in New York City The Institute has created partnerships with a number of major cultural institutions so students may take advant­ age of the vast opportunities in Brooklyn and Manhattan.

Students participate in collaborative work as part of their curriculum or simply have class visits. On their own, Pratt students may visit free of charge.

The Brooklyn Museum has an impressive permanent collection including the Egyptian art collection and the Asian collection. The museum puts on several contemp­ orary—and often local—art exhibitions each year. The “First Saturday” of each month is a day of special events when the museum is free to the community.

Open year-round, the adjacent Brooklyn Botanic Garden features one of the most impressive Japanese gardens outside of Japan, capturing nature in miniature: trees and shrubs, carefully dwarfed and shaped by cloud pruning, are surrounded by hills and a pond. The Cranford Rose Garden features 5,000 bushes of 1,200 varieties of roses.

The Brooklyn Academy of Music, popularly known as BAM, is at the vanguard of theater offerings. Productions ranging from performance art and independent films to stylized Shakespearean productions are available to Pratt students at discounted rates.

In Manhattan, Pratt students also enjoy visiting these institutions where admission fees are waived: Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum; the Frick Collection; the Museum of Arts and Design; the Museum of Modern Art; and the Whitney Museum of American Art. AFFILIATED PROGRAMS PrattMWP Pratt’s upstate extension campus in Utica, New York is the result of an affiliation with the renowned MunsonWilliams-Proctor Arts Institute. Students take the first two years of Pratt’s Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fine Art, Photo­graphy, Art and Design Education, or Communi­ cations Design on Munson’s beautiful central New York State campus and finish the last two years at Pratt in Brooklyn. With state-of-the-art facilities, a worldclass museum, and spacious new student apart­ments in a historic Victorian-era neighbor­hood, PrattMWP is a wonderful opportunity for students looking

Pratt Institute

for a first‑rate art education in a small-town setting at a significantly lower cost.

First-year students take a set of core courses, based on the first-year curriculum at Pratt’s main campus, along with required liberal arts courses. In the second year, they begin to specialize in fine arts, photography, art and design education, or communications design, so that in the junior year at Pratt they may specialize further with a major in one of these areas.

Students have the option to relocate for the junior year with no application process for a virtually seam­ less trans­ition, or they may apply to transfer elsewhere.

Financial aid is awarded on the basis of both financial need and merit. For more information, go to www.mwpai.edu or contact the Office of Admissions at 315.797.0000 ext. 2286 or 800.755.8920 ext. 2286, or email admissions@mwpai.edu.

Delaware College of Art and Design The Delaware College of Art and Design (DCAD) in Wilmington, Delaware, was established as a creative part­ner­ship of Pratt Institute and the Corcoran College of Art and Design, and is now an independent two-year school of art and design. Established in 1998, DCAD’s two-year Associate of Fine Arts (A.F.A.) program prepares students to apply for transfer into bachelor of fine arts degree programs at Pratt as juniors. Go to www.pratt.edu/apply and click Transfer for details.

In The Princeton Review’s 2013 Guide to 322 Green Colleges, Pratt was recognized as one of the country’s most environmentally responsible colleges. As an active part­ici­pant in the American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), Pratt seeks to be a carbon-neutral campus. Myrtle Hall, a LEED Goldcertified building designed by the firm WASA/Studio A, was completed in 2010. The 120,000-square-foot building is a testament to Pratt’s commitment to sustainability.

Regardless of discipline, our graduates must be able to integrate best sustainable practices into their profes­ sional lives. Within each program, Pratt students are offered the opportunity to learn to think in new ways about the relation­ship of designer to product, architect to built environment, and artist to creative expression.

The Institute is continuously working to reduce our carbon foot­print, “greening” our dorms, facilities, and classrooms, and creating an ongoing, living laboratory from which our students can observe, participate, and experiment.

The Institute’s Center for Sustainable Design Strategies (CSDS) is an active and collaborative resource for sustain­able design at Pratt’s Brooklyn campus. Under the umbrella of CSDS, the Pratt Design Incubator for Sustainable Innovation provides ambitious students and Pratt alumni with a stimulating place to launch sustainability-minded businesses, providing office space, planning support, and access to shop facilities. For more information, go to csds.pratt.edu.

WHERE CREATIVE MINDS ARE INSPIRED Brooklyn Campus Located just 25 minutes from midtown Manhattan, Pratt’s main Brooklyn location is the only New York City art and design school with a traditional campus. A 25-acre landscaped oasis, Pratt provides a visual respite in a busy city. Many of the Institute’s 19th-century buildings have been designated national landmarks, including the 1897 Renaissance Revival-style Caroline Ladd Pratt House, which serves as the official house of the Pratt president and several students. The Pratt Library, which was built in 1896 in a similar style, boasts an interior designed by the Tiffany Glass and Decorating Co. Beyond this rich heritage, Pratt also has several distinctly modern buildings that have been constructed in the past decade. The 26,000-square-foot Higgins Hall Center Section, designed by Steven Holl Architects and Rogers Marvel Architects for the School of Architecture, opened in 2006. The following year marked the opening of the 160,000-square-foot Juliana Curran Terian Design Center—designed by Hanrahan Meyers Architects, the firm led by Thomas Hanrahan, dean of the School of Architecture.

Myrtle Hall, a LEED Gold-certified building designed by the firm WASA/Studio A, was completed in 2010 and is home to the digital arts programs. The 120,000-squarefoot building is a testament to Pratt’s commitment to sustainability.

The entire 25-acre campus also comprises the celebrated Pratt Sculpture Park, the largest in New York City, with sculptures by artists including internationally renowned Richard Serra and Mark di Suvero. According to Public Art Review, it is one of the 10 best campus art collections in the United States.

Pratt’s tree-lined neighborhood, Clinton Hill, has a history that is intimately intertwined with that of the

BROOKLYN CAMPUS

FILM/VIDEO BUILDING

Institute. A century ago, it was home to the elite of Brooklyn. The expansive mansions lining Clinton Avenue belonged to the shipping magnates and mercantile princes of the Gilded Age. Charles Pratt, whose fortune derived from his partnership with John D. Rockefeller in Standard Oil, started his Institute on family land just a few blocks from the family mansion.

Clinton Hill is one of New York’s premier Victorianera neighborhoods and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In part because of Pratt, it boasts an extraordinary number of creative artists, architects, designers, illustrators, and sculptors among its residents.

Manhattan Campus Pratt’s Manhattan campus is located at 144 West 14th Street, within walking distance of Union Square, Chelsea’s art district, and many other leading educational and cultural institutions. The seven-story, 80,000-square-foot property offers state-of-the-art facilities within a distinctive, turn-of-the-century Romanesque Revival building. Pratt’s Manhattan-based programs benefit from the new campus’s cutting-edge technology and its prime location.

The Manhattan campus houses the School of Information; the School of Continuing and Professional Studies; the Associate Degree programs; the graduate programs in Design Management, and Arts and Cultural Management; and the School of Arch­itecture’s undergraduate Construction Manage­ment program and graduate programs in Facilities Management and Real Estate Practice. The library, exhibition space, and state-ofthe-art computer labs support the academic programs.

Professional Faculty Pratt’s more than 1,000 faculty members are award-winning professional artists, designers, architects, and writers who mentor their gifted students to achieve comparable success. These faculty members impart to students the same high standards upheld in their professional work.

With different views, methods, and perspectives, they all share a common desire to develop each student’s potential and creativity to the fullest—to graduate competent and creative professionals who will shape the world to come.

Faculty serve as critical connections when students are ready for employment or internships.

feature the latest software for the departments using them. Those working in the three-dimensional realm have access to 3-D printers, laser cutters, and CNC milling machines. Pratt continually upgrades lab equipment as industry standards change.

Exhibitions Gallery space, both on the Brooklyn campus and at Pratt Manhattan, is extensive, showing the work of students, alumni, faculty, staff, and other well-known artists, arch­ itects, and designers throughout the academic year. Pratt Manhattan Gallery is a public art gallery that strives to present significant work from around the world in the fields of art, architecture, fashion, and design. The Rubelle and Norman Schafler Gallery on the Brooklyn campus mounts faculty and student exhibitions, as well as thematic shows featuring the work of unaffiliated artists. In addition, Pratt has more than 15 other galleries located on its Brooklyn and Manhattan campuses.

Libraries The Pratt Library on the Brooklyn campus is located in an 1896 landmark building with interiors by the Tiffany Glass and Decorating Co. Collections and services are focused on the visual arts, architecture, design, creative writing, and allied fields. Additional materials support the general education curriculum. The library houses more than 200,000 volumes of print materials, including more than 600 periodicals, rare books, and the college archives. The library also includes a multimedia center housing nearly 3,000 film and video titles, as well as the Visual Resources Center, a collection of more than 120,000 circulating architecture, art, and design digital images.

The Pratt Manhattan Center Library supports visiting researchers as well as the Pratt community. The library has a growing collection of monographs, serials, and multi­ media, as well as stock photography. It offers a wide range of electronic resources, including general and subjectspecific databases, all of which are available off-site.

HISTORY OF PRATT On October 17, 1887, 12 young people climbed the stairs of the new “Main” building and began to fulfill the dream of Charles Pratt as the first students at Pratt Institute.

Charles Pratt, one of 11 children, was born the son of a Massachusetts carpenter in 1830. In Boston, he joined a company specializing in paints and whale oil products. When he came to New York, he founded a petroleum business that would become Charles Pratt and Company. The company eventually merged with

Pratt Institute

Standard Oil, the company that made John D. Rockefeller his millions.

Pratt’s fortunes increased and he became a leading figure in Brooklyn, serving his community and his profession. A philanthropist and visionary, he supported many of Brooklyn’s major institutions. He always regretted, however, his own limited education and dreamed of found­ing an institution where pupils could learn trades through the skillful use of their hands. This dream was realized when Pratt Institute opened its doors more than 125 years ago. To this day, members of the Pratt family are leading supporters of the Institute.

Today, Pratt offers students more than 25 undergrad­ uate majors and concentrations—more than most other art and design schools in the country—and more than 25 master’s degree programs.

The energy, foresight, and spirit Charles Pratt gave to his dream remain even today. Inscribed on the seal of the Institute is his motto: Be True to Your Work, and Your Work Will Be True to You. PRATT STUDENTS No matter which part of the world Pratt’s students come from, most have known since childhood that they enjoy creating things, solving problems, and share a desire to change the world and leave an imprint.

Pratt receives more than 8,000 applications yearly for its freshman class of 680. Twenty-eight percent of the fresh­­man class comes from other countries, including China, Canada, Singapore, Thailand, Turkey, and Korea.

Seventy‑seven percent of the undergraduate enrollment comes from states other than New York, giving Pratt a truly national and international student body.

Although it is possible to attend Pratt part-time, 100 percent of the freshman class chooses to study full-time, reflecting a high degree of commitment. The student body is composed of 4,632 undergraduate and graduate students—33 percent men and 67 percent women.

Student Retention One of the best measures of student satisfaction is the percentage of freshmen who return the following fall.

Pratt’s retention rate of 87 percent is among the highest in the country among private art schools.

Student Life Pratt students can choose from more than 60 student activities, including honor societies, clubs, sports, and the student-run school newspaper, publications, or radio station. Students regularly attend films, plays, lectures, art openings, and concerts—both on campus and around

New York City. These cultural outings play an essential role in the Pratt experience.

In addition to the residence halls and cafeteria and cafés where students meet for meals, campus life is also centered around the Library, the Schafler Gallery, and the Activities Resource Center, where most sports and wellness activities take place. In warm weather, students often meet and sit on the lawns surrounded by the contemporary sculptures that dot the campus.

Athletics and Recreation Pratt’s athletic programs are based in the Activities Resource Center, which has a 200-meter indoor track, five indoor tennis courts, basketball and volleyball courts, a weight room, dance/exercise rooms, and saunas. Pratt is a member of the Hudson Valley Inter­col­ legiate Athletic Conference. Men’s and women’s varsity sports at Pratt include outdoor and indoor track, crosscountry, basketball, volleyball, soccer, and tennis.

Pratt also offers intramural sports, fitness and wellness, and informal recreation.

Living on Campus Pratt is one of the few colleges in New York City that offer on-campus housing. Ninety-four percent of freshmen and more than half of all students live on our main Brooklyn campus in one of Pratt’s residence halls. Students can choose to live in a single room, a four-person suite, or a full apartment with one, two, or three bedrooms. Freshmen can apply to live in one of the campus’s recently renovated historic townhouses, which house six students. Various meal plans are available for residential students.

The School of Architecture’s mission is to educate the future leaders of the design, planning, and management disciplines in the professional fields of architecture, urban design, city and regional planning, construction and facilities management, environmental management, historic preservation, urban placemaking, and real estate management. This effort builds upon a strong context of professional education within an art and design institute that stresses the relationship between intellectual development and creative activity. The school offers a broad cultural and analytical base in the liberal arts and sciences, while providing the specialized knowledge unique to individual disciplines. The importance of independent learning is empha­ sized through studio-based curricula and research-oriented thesis programs.

The balance between theory and practice is critical and is gained only through rigorous exposure to these diverse elements.

The beauty of Pratt is that it has, in the words of one graduate, “reached critical, cultural mass,” where the diversity and liveliness of discussions about the how, what, and why of the profession are always vigorous and interesting. The School of Architecture is dedicated to maintaining the connection between design theory and practice and to contributing to the knowledge necessary to fully understand the built environment.

The range of programs within the school and the accessibility of other programs within the Institute enable students to pursue a wide variety of interests within the field. Architecture students may take electives in fine arts, illustration, computer graphics, industrial design, furniture design, interior design, and photo­ graphy, as well as architectural electives in advanced architectural theory, advanced fabrication technology, and morphology.

The opportunity to learn from peers also is an invaluable part of the educational experience. The student body includes many international students, each of whom brings a different perspective to the study of architecture. The school encourages transfer students to apply and will evaluate credits from other colleges, universities, or community colleges.

The Pratt student graduates from the program knowing architecture as a discipline that gathers from the arts, sciences, and liberal arts to produce works of value that are sensitive to the realities of life in cultures around the world. The Pratt graduate

19

is imbued with strong ethical values and an understanding of the architect’s ability to improve quality of life.

For its faculty, the school draws upon the world’s largest pool of practicing architects, building professionals, theoreticians, historians, and critics, who bring to the classroom professional expertise, a strong theoretical base, and the high standards to which they adhere in their work. Students are further exposed to the professional world through optional internship programs that place them in outstanding New York architectural firms, public agencies, and nonprofit design institutions, giving them firsthand work experience as well as credit toward their profes­ sional degrees. The program makes rich use of the extended resources of the metropolitan New York community.

The School of Architecture demonstrates daily that learning does not occur solely within the classroom. This is reflected in the School of Architecture lecture series that bring some of the most influential architects and design professionals in the world to campus; the Center for Experimental Structures; exhibitions and symposia organized and curated by students and faculty; and the study abroad excursions in Asia, South America, Europe, and our semester program in Rome.

The School of Architecture at Pratt Institute seeks to create a culture of innovation and research in both the faculty and student body. The School of Architecture recognizes that in the design world of the 21st century, important research is being conducted around the world by innovative professionals and educators, and that traditional academic categories of research are giving way to “research-driven practice,” particularly in the areas of sustain­ability, digital design, material research, and community planning. The School of Architecture can therefore play a pivotal role in the development of this emergent research culture by creating a flexible, adaptable, and technically supportive environment where students are engaged in studio and research courses with teaching professionals in their respective discipline.

The School of Architecture will maintain its commitment to professional evaluation and accreditation standards, but will augment these standards with educational experiences in the form of “think tank” or “incubator” models.

Undergraduate architecture is a five-year accredited Bachelor of Architecture program that prepares students with an early interest in architecture to become leading professional practitioners. Students at Pratt learn that architecture is a meaningful cultural contribution, requir­ ing both imagination and material realization within a larger social and ethical context. The five-year design sequence offers a thorough foundation in architecture, integrating critical thinking, design, technology, building, representation, and social responsibility.

Students strive for creative and intellectual indep­end­ ence and inspired architectural research. Firmly committed to contemporary material practices, the program is currently developing initiatives to integrate new techn­ ologies into the curriculum.

The Bachelor of Architecture program is a fully ac­credit­ed five-year professional program, and has been ranked among the top fifteen programs in the United States by DesignIntelligence every year since 2000.

The program received an eight-year reaccreditation in fall 2016.

In the United States, most registration boards require a degree from an accredited professional degree program as a prerequisite for licensure. The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), which is the sole agency authorized to accredit professional degree programs in architecture, offered by institutions with U.S. regional accreditation, recognizes three types of degrees: the Bachelor of Architecture, the Master of Architecture, and the Doctor of Architecture. A program may be granted an eight-year, three-year, or two-year term of accredit­ ation, depending on the extent of its conform­ance with established educational standards.

Doctor of Architecture and Master of Architecture degree programs may require a pre-professional under­ graduate degree in architecture for admission. However, the pre-professional degree is not, by itself, recognized as an accredited degree.

Pratt Institute, School of Architecture, Undergraduate Architecture department offers the following NAABaccredited degree programs: B. Arch. (170 undergraduate credits). The next accreditation visit for all programs is 2024.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE Bachelor of Architecture The Bachelor of Architecture program is a professional program accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB) requiring a minimum of five years of study. Most states require that individuals intending to become architects hold an accredited degree.

21

These professional degrees are structured to educate those who aspire to registration and licensure to practice as architects.

The 170 credits required for the Bachelor of Archi­ tecture degree are organized in three main categories: a core of required courses in architectural study, liberal arts courses, and electives. The core of 95 credits is primarily taken in the first three years and is designed to give basic professional preparation in architect­ ural design, construction technology, graphic com­muni­ cation, and the humanistic aspects of design.

The liberal arts areas require 48 credits, of which 12 are taken within the School of Architecture (ARCH 151, 152, 251, and 252), six credits in English, six in cultural history, six in science, and six in social science. The remaining 12 credits are taken as electives selected from the liberal arts courses offered by the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The elective courses consist of 15 credits of professional electives selected from courses offered by the Under­graduate Architecture programs, and 12 all-Institute electives, selected from courses offered by any school in the Institute. By purposefully selecting courses within all elective areas during their last four semesters, students can develop their own unique arch­i­ tectural education based on their own needs and goals. This personalized fourth-year curriculum is directed toward culmination in the fifth-year degree project.

Individual curricula may be developed to place more emphasis on such subject areas as design, preservation, building technology, history and theory, planning, construction management, and urban design in the final two years of study.

The degree project year completes the student’s academic architectural experience with an in‑depth design study, preceded and accompanied by research.

The degree project is executed with guidance from critics chosen by the student.

Undergraduate architecture students may also be interested in a Concentration in Morphology or a Minor in Construction Management as well as options combining the undergraduate degrees with various master’s degrees in planning and facilities management.

Within this overview, different course offerings focus on any combination of these topics. Since D’Arcy Thompson’s pioneering work a century ago, the generative principles of Form have become central to our understanding of the diverse structures we encounter in nature and man-made constructs, physical and even conceptual. This paradigm has percolated within many fields of knowledge since and guides the academic and research activities at the Center for Experimental Structures at Pratt Institute, School of Architecture.

Morphology Concentration As part of the Center for Experimental Structures (CES), the Concentration in Morphology leverages the long history of interest in Form studies with a focus on exploring the relationship between Form and Space (geometry, topology), Form and Force (structural morphology), Form and Time (dynamic morphology) enabled by computation, fabrication, construction, and emerging technologies.

Construction Management

Chair Regina Ford Cahill, M.S. rcahill8@pratt.edu Assistant to the Chair Philip Ramus pramus@pratt.edu Office Tel: 212.647.7524 Fax: 212.367.2497 Email: cm@pratt.edu www.pratt.edu/constructionmanagement

Construction management is the planning, bidding, and coordination of a project from construction drawings to completion; its participants are the “business managers” for the built environment. A construction manager may work for a large development/construction company, as an owner’s representative on projects, or as a specialist in one of the many roles required for the efficient, economically viable, and safe delivery of construction projects. These con­struc­tion projects may have a variety of purposes from housing, commercial/office space, recreational and urban placemaking plazas, to intermodal transportation projects.

The construction manager is charged with the tasks of assembling a team for construction; contending with numerous local, state, and federal regulations; and coordinating skilled craftspeople, unions, contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers, planners, consult­ ants, and the owner/developer. The day-to-day challenges of construction management make for some of the most demanding assignments in the world, whether a manager is overseeing the construction of a towering skyscraper or a public plaza.

Construction management is a collaborative effort.

The primary relationships among stakeholders can be represented by a triangle, with the owner at one point, the architect/engineer at another, and the construction manager at the third. Given the growing complexity of design and construction, whether urban, suburban, or rural, there are no major projects built without this crucial team in place.

Pratt’s School of Architecture has the distinction of being one of the first and one of the few urban schools in the nation to offer this essential degree program.

The faculty consists of leading professionals, including the project manager and the director of safety and site safety management of the World Financial Center; former assist­ant commissioner and director of design for New York City public works; chief, Division of Material Assurance, Safety and Landfill Remediation, New York City Department of Environ­mental Protection; a member of the Industry Advisery Committee, New York City Department of Buildings; the vice president and project executive for a leading construction management firm managing major national and inter­national multimillion-dollar projects; and a principal of the largest specifications consulting firm in the Northeast.

The Construction Management program provides a professional education that emphasizes critical thinking and connects business management with construction tech­nology on a strong foundation in liberal arts education suitable for a career in building construction.

35

Graduates of the Construction Management program should: ll Understand the roles and responsibilities of the participants in a construction project. ll Be able to plan and organize the work of a construction project. ll Be able to apply knowledge from English, mathematics, science, management, and communication courses to construction-related activities. ll Be capable of collaborating with members of a team with an emphasis on written and verbal communication. ll Understand the importance of ethical practice. ll Possess a passion for lifelong learning.

Students can apply for matriculation (acceptance into the degree-granting program) upon admission or they can be admitted with special, nonmatriculating status.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The Construction Management bachelor’s degree program requires the completion of 132 credits.

Students may take classes during the day or in the evening. Students may vary the program through their choice of electives that emphasize architectural, real estate, or other construction-related roles.

The mission of the School of Art is to educate those who will make and shape our built and mediated environ­ment, our aesthetic surroundings, and our collective future.

Pratt’s School of Art is a destination for talented students with a strong desire to explore the bound­aries of art. Young artists from around the world come to study at Pratt’s campus, located in the heart of historic and contemporary Brooklyn. Students join a community of working artists who make up Pratt’s outstanding faculty that encourages growth and experimentation.

The School of Art offers a diverse range of pro­grams in digital arts, film/video, fine arts, photography, and art and design education. These programs are supported by studies in the liberal arts and sciences, creating a dynamic context for stimulating intellectual and creative inquiry. The School of Art programs are also enriched by Pratt’s distinguished profes­sional programs in the School of Design and the School of Architecture—all within the cultural campus of New York City.

Two parallel objectives guide every department in the School of Art. One is the emphasis on students acquiring a high level of skills, techniques, method­ologies, and vocabulary required for success as creative professionals. The second objective—inter­ twined with the first—is to balance that profes­sional proficiency with a highly developed critical judgment based on historical perspectives that allows students to become effective and creative problem solvers for the world they will graduate into.

The School of Art’s diverse collection of disciplines is dedicated to the primacy of studio practice and the transform­­ative power of creativity. We educate leaders in the creative professions to identify, understand, shape, and benefit from the challenges of a rapidly changing world. Our programs are designed to develop critical thinking skills, deepen under­standing, enable practice, and empower visionary action. The School of Art is dedicated to developing creative leadership in a world that requires it.

Acting Chair Kim Sloane Assistant Chair Natalie Moore Assistant to the Chair Sabrina Lovell Administrative Assistant Julia Shinay Technician Sung Ha No 4-D Lab Manager Madeline Youngberg Office Tel: 718.636.3617 Fax: 718.399.4589 fdc@pratt.edu www.pratt.edu/foundation

The Foundation Program at Pratt Institute is the first year of the four-year education of a Pratt student. The academic year 2017–18 will be the first year of a newly revised first-year curriculum. Pratt faculty from throughout the Institute have worked together to carefully craft a comprehensive year-long course of study that will prepare students for future study in the School of Art or the School of Design.

The curriculum has been designed with two major outcomes in mind. One is that students will be introduced to concepts, materials, and methods of making common to all art and design practice. The second outcome is that students will become confident practitioners of the design or creative process. Each student will leave the first year with the confidence and conviction necessary to continue their studies in their chosen field.

Pratt foundation faculty are aware that learning is an acquired skill. As much as instructing students in skills and concepts, faculty will introduce students to what learning means in the new environment of college. Learning in higher education is not the same as learning in K-12.

Learning in an art and design school differs from learning at other colleges and universities. And learning at Pratt is distinct from learning at other art and design schools.

The first-year curriculum will take the student through periods of guided instruction, to generative learning and problem solving, to self-directed projects with explicit communi­cative and expressive outcomes. Students will learn to confront desirable difficulties and arrive at original, well-crafted solutions in traditional media as well as the most recent digital applications.

The first-year course of study consists of Foundation Studio Core, Themes in Art and Culture I and II (HA 111 and HA 112), and Introduction to Literary and Critical Studies (HMS 101A and HMS 101B). The Fashion Department is an exception and has its own first-year program.

Transfer students will be evaluated for advanced standing, with proper documentation (transcript and portfolio), by the Office of Admissions.

The Studio core consists of two year-long courses and two single-semester courses. The two year-long experi­ences are Representation and Visualization I and II, and Light, Color, Design Lab and Studio. In these courses students will gain a strong grounding in ways of seeing and making that will range from the time-honored to the experimental. Six-hour studio classes allow for solid instruction in drawing systems, figure drawing, and working from observation and imagination. Students will gain fluency in color and design elements and practice their application in combination to communicate meaning.

Students will take one semester each of Form, Space, and Process and Time and Movement. These classes are

47

full six-hour studio classes that will introduce students to multi-dimensional concepts and practice. Form, Space, and Process is three-dimensional concepts and problemsolving. Time and Movement is an immersive introduction to ordering information in time and dynamic design.

The Foundation Year courses have been developed as parts of a whole with a purposeful interweaving of content and experience. Art and design are seen as fields whose work is to fulfill and address human needs.

These needs may be emotional or practical, or some beautiful combination of the two. Students in the first year learn to see addressing these needs as a challenge, and are provided with the information, tools, methods, and encouragement they need to meet these challenges.

Foundation students complete a journey from passive learning to active making. The year provides a time and space for students to realize the best vision of them­selves as creative individuals.

Art and Design Education

The B.F.A. and B.F.A./M.S. degrees prepare students to approach teaching as a creative process modeled upon and nourished by intensive studio preparation in a contemporary art con­text. Students engage in fieldwork and student teaching experiences which help them integrate their studio work, studies in liberal arts, education theory, and teaching practice. Throughout their teaching experiences in K-12 schools and community-based educational settings students: ll provide holistic studio learning opportunities for young people ll value young people’s social and cultural assets ll connect to young people’s families and communities.

Upon graduation, students become proficient in their written and spoken communication about contemporary art and design practices as they begin to advocate for studio-based art and design programs in diverse learning contexts.

B.F.A. IN ART AND DESIGN EDUCATION (WITH NEW YORK STATE INITIAL CERTIFICATION, VISUAL ARTS PRE-K-12), 126 CREDITS Within the B.F.A. in art and design education, students can opt to pursue two different paths: one in art and design education with New York State certification and one in community art and design education. Both paths provide the following core experiences: Studio Core Students take a sequence of 18 studio credits in a core art or design discipline beginning in their sophomore year. Through individual advisement sessions, students choose the core discipline based on their experiences in the foundation year and evolving studio interest, and examine their progress in the core as they move from one semester to the next.

Deputy Director K-12 Tara Kopp tkopp@pratt.edu 718.636.3654

Teaching Experience Students pursuing both degree paths—certification and community art and design education—take courses that immerse them in fieldwork and student teaching in K-12 public schools and other settings. In their junior year, students decide which path they want to pursue. Students who choose the certification path fulfill their additional student teaching requirements in public schools, and students in the community art and design education track fulfill their student teaching requirements in communitybased settings.

For over a century, Saturday Art School has provided children and adolescents with a quality arts program.

Partnering with the Center for Art, Design, and Community Engagement K-12, students collaborate with children and young people attending this out-of-school program in art and design. Students learn to integrate the knowledge, skills and values of their studio-core or major to inform art and design projects conceived and developed in concert with young people. Supervised by faculty, students support children and young people in the concep­tual­ ization and realization of studio-based projects over the course of the semester culminating in a curated exhibition.

Integrative Capstone Students complete a capstone course that supports stu­ dents as they integrate their studio core with their teach­ing experi­ences through reflection and research in the field of art and design education. The capstone course in students’ senior year provides a space for students to reflect and build on their learning by investigating a topic in art and design education and developing a senior exhibit and catalog.

Workshops ll These workshops must be taken with a provider approved by NYSED. ll Child Abuse Identification Workshop ($45, Sophomore Semester, Spring) ll School Violence Prevention and Intervention Workshop ($45, Sophomore Semester, Spring) ll Training in Harassment, Bullying, Cyberbullying, and Discrimination in Schools: Prevention and Intervention ($85, Sophomore Semester, Fall) Tests and Assessments: ll Educating All Students-EAS ($92, Junior Semester, Fall) ll Academic Literacy Skills Test-ALST ($118, Sophomore Semester, Fall) ll Content Specialty Test—CST ($134, Junior Semester, Fall) ll Education Teacher Performance Assessment—EdTPA ($300, Senior Semester, Fall)

COMBINED DEGREE IN ART AND DESIGN EDUCATION (B.F.A./M.S.), 156 CREDITS By completing both undergraduate and graduate degrees in Art and Design Education at Pratt, students can reduce time and cost requirements. The five-year program provides students with opportunities to explore new areas in the field of art and design education such as puppetry and performance, museum education, and community art and design education. Students also complete a thesis in which they conduct research on a topic of their choosing.

Students need to remain in good academic standing to continue in the five-year program. Financial aid packages, as well as bursar and other payment situations, convert to graduate student levels.

CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS In order to be recommended for NYSED Initial/Professional Certification in Visual Arts, Pre-K–12, candidates must have completed the following procedures, workshops and tests as you move through the program so that by the time you have finished your last semester, you will have comp­ leted everything you will need to apply for certification.

Please note: the fees for the workshops and tests/assess­ ments will be charged as part of your cost of tuition and will therefore be part of your student loan package as needed.

Fingerprinting ll You will be required to be fingerprinted in preparation for observing and teaching in New York City’s public schools ($135, Sophomore Semester, Fall).

Associate Degree Programs

Chair Susan G. Young Assistant to the Chair Chandra Singh 3-D Technician Zach Whitehurst Office Tel: 212.647.7375 Fax: 212.367.2480 aos@pratt.edu www.pratt.edu/associate-degree

Pratt’s Associate Degree programs (A.O.S. and A.A.S.) are concise, comprehensive, and intensive two-year under­ graduate art and design degree programs that integrate the best of new media and technologies with a strong commitment to a traditional art and design curriculum.

These programs offer an exciting educational opportunity to traditional and nontraditional students.

Through these programs, students are able to immerse themselves in an intensive two-year, career-track Associate of Occupational Studies (A.O.S.) or transfer-track Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) education. Located in Manhattan, the center of the art and design community, students have immediate access to the world’s leading design studios and museums, providing excellent opport­ unities for field trips, guest speakers, and internship place­ ment. All of New York City is our campus, and the diversity of the student body—with students of varied ages from across the country and around the world—reflects the sophisticated location.

The faculty members, including some of New York’s leading artists and designers, bring to the classroom a unique combination of expertise and dedication to teach­ ing. They work diligently to provide students with pro­fes­ sional experience and to inspire the confidence students need to continue their education or pursue their chosen careers. Class sizes are small and faculty members work closely with each student, helping to refine their skills to reach a professional and competitive level.

In all majors, there is a strong emphasis on teaching traditional skills and a commitment to providing students with access to the most advanced technology. The cur­ riculum begins with rigorous foundation courses for all majors, followed by major-specific upper-level courses, and culminates in a professional portfolio development course and with internship opportunities.

The Program’s Structure The Associate Degree offerings are concise, compre­ hensive, and demanding, giving students the choice of an intensive two-year career (A.O.S.) or transfer-track (A.A.S.) education. These programs integrate the best of the new technologies into a strong, traditional art and design curriculum.

ASSOCIATE OF OCCUPATIONAL STUDIES (A.O.S.) Graphic Design, Illustration, and Game Design and Interactive Media The A.O.S. program is a professional degree designed for high school graduates and adults with or without previous college experience. This is an intensive, two-year,

59

all art-and-design-based curriculum, offering a strong foundation in design along with capstone courses, internship opportunities, and a professional portfolio upon graduation. The program attracts highly motivated students who, upon completing their studies, move quickly into the fields of graphic design, advertising, illustration, web design, game design, package design, and publishing, as well as an array of interactive media fields.

ASSOCIATE OF APPLIED SCIENCE (A.A.S.) Graphic Design/Illustration and Painting/Drawing The A.A.S. program is a pre-professional degree program providing the student with the first two years of a fouryear bachelor of fine arts course of study. Upon comp­ letion, students graduate with an A.A.S. degree and have the option of entering an arts profession or applying for transfer into a four-year B.F.A. program at Pratt or another school of their choice.

The program offers a strong foundation, advancedlevel art and design courses, and a liberal studies component, all combined to create a comprehensive transfer degree.

The faculty for both the A.O.S. and A.A.S. degree programs is composed of New York’s leading professionals, who bring to the classroom practical professional experi­ ence and expertise reflecting the highest standards in their fields. The emphasis on personal attention given to each student is a key difference between this and other programs. Students may attend classes on a full- or parttime basis. Financial aid is available to qualified students.

Digital Arts

What is a digital artist?

A visual thinker. A researcher.

A programmer. An inventor.

A builder. A storyteller.

A visionary.

One of the most exciting aspects of being an artist in the 21st century is the ability to digitally alter any medium to express an idea.

Pratt’s Digital Arts program offers three distinct areas of emphasis: 3-D animation and motion arts, 2-D animation, and interactive arts. In interactive arts students find their creative voices in the exploration of digitally mediated installations, apps, and sculpture. 3-D animation involves bringing the inanimate to life in a virtual world, while 2-D animation explores the immediacy and joy of tactile media. In each area, students have access to a wide variety of high-quality technology in an environment that can only be described as invigorating and innovative.

The Digital Arts program is populated with a faculty of talented, leading professionals in the field. Many write for trade and professional journals, and several have authored trendsetting books. Their works are widely published and exhibited both nationally and internationally.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE

Chair Peter Patchen Assistant Chair Carla Gannis Assistant to the Chair Deidre Carney Lab Managers Sharlene Medina Igor Molochevski Office Tel: 718.636.3411 Fax: 718.399.4494 dda@pratt.edu www.pratt.edu/digital-arts

B.F.A. in Digital Arts This program helps students to master the new tech­ nologies that are reshaping the way people interact, communicate, and create new forms of expression. The curriculum prepares students for professional positions in the arts and creative industries that currently employ this technology: interactive media, digital animation, and experimental fine arts. Living and studying in New York City affords students access to galleries and production facilities that few cities can rival. Our students routinely continue to expand their skills and make career-changing contacts working as interns in leading studios and galleries.

The four years culminate in a senior project that is exhibited/screened in senior shows. Students create traditional portfolios, demo reels, and websites that are used as a part of graduate school applications, gallery and festival entries, and job applications.

This 134-credit program may be completed in four calendar years.

AREAS OF EMPHASIS Students are able to select one of three tracks: interactive arts, digital (3-D) animation and motion arts, or 2-D animation.

67

Interactive Arts Students use computer-human interaction to convey meaning in the form of physical installations, interactive objects, and online artworks. This includes the combin­ ation of video, animation, text, audio, and imagery in an interactive environment. Courses include graphics programming, interface design, interactive installation, robotics and physical computing, ActionScript, and more.

Recommended electives include courses in sculpture, history of new media, video editing, programming, video installation, online media, electronic music, and audio editing.

Digital (3-D) Animation and Motion Arts Students focus on self-expression using form and motion, time-based narrative, live action, and digital animation techniques. Courses include 3-D modeling, 3-D animation, character design, rigging, character animation, story­ boarding and storytelling, motion dynamics, lighting and rendering, video editing, and audio editing. Recom­ mended electives include contemporary issues in film and video, history of animation, 2-D animation, character design and rigging, scripting, audio and video, compositing and special effects, 3-D printing, and advanced digital animation techniques.

2-D Animation Animation courses are constructed to afford a wide exposure to all aspects of animation production and to allow students to focus on the areas of greatest interest.

Courses in animation history, character development, storyboarding, and storytelling enhance the animation production courses. The junior workshops are advanced studies in animation production using traditional and digital tools.

You can’t escape the moving image. Whether in theaters and art galleries or on television, smartphones, YouTube, building façades, and cabs, movies are everywhere. The magic of cinema, which shocked audiences at its inception, is now fully integrated into our daily lives. With near universal access, the medium is constantly evolving and reinventing itself. How can you, as a young artist, make the most of this moment? How can you explore all the exciting new possibilities of film and video, while still becoming skilled in the relevant traditions?

The Pratt Film program is designed to grow the next generation of innovators in time-based media. Housed within the School of Art, the program offers a unique approach to the fundamentals of filmmaking, with extensive technical and conceptual training in both traditional and nontraditional forms. At Pratt, there are no limits. Fiction or nonfiction? Commercial or art world? These may be boundaries you choose to move beyond. Your classes will take you through all modes of film and video (narrative, documentary, experimental, and hybrid), encouraging intellectual cross-fertilization and allowing you to shape your own artistic vision. While our program provides students with professional training in all current tech­nol­ ogies, our priority is creative expression.

In our curriculum, award-winning film/video artists and industry professionals teach an exciting range of courses, from first-semester Film Fundamentals and Technical Practices to the culminating Senior Project, in which each student makes a short film, video, or installation as their senior thesis.

Throughout the program, students create, write, direct, and edit as “total filmmakers,” rather than focusing on one area. We provide a core curriculum of rigorous required courses, while simultaneously encouraging students to follow their own interests as they choose electives, which include dynamic film/video topics as well as inter­disci­plin­ ary collaborations with students in other majors.

For example, consider an elective in Dreams, Memories, and Hallucinations, a nontraditional animation and After Effects class, or collaborate with fashion design students in Film + Fashion, and explore the rich interaction of costume and the moving image. Challenge yourself to learn from your peers and your environment, as well as from your professors.

Access is key. In the Film program, starting freshman year, students shoot with digital cinema cameras, quality microphones, and digital audio recorders. Students edit in our digital editing facilities, manipulating images and audio with the latest postproduction software. The members of the Film/Video Department (administrators, faculty, and technical support staff) are all active, accomplished

75

filmmakers, enthusiastic to share their experiences with you, which is critical to your development.

As a film major, you will have access that extends beyond Pratt into New York City itself. Your options for identifying new directions in the field are not limited to your Ways of Seeing Cinema class. You can visit cutting-edge galleries and micro-cinemas, world-class museums and film festivals—it’s happening all over the city. Opportunities for pre-professional experiences abound. You can join a film crew shooting on the streets of Brooklyn—or intern at places like the Museum of Modern Art, Saturday Night Live, or one of the countless independent companies that shape New York City’s thriving creative scene.

The future of the moving image is unpredictable and wide open. At Pratt, we’re excited by the possibilities.

Our mission is to provide you with tools and techniques, an understanding of history, and a complex yet flexible interdisciplinary arts education, allowing you to guide us into that future.

Our recent graduates are already leading the way with their infectious pioneering spirit. They are directing films that have premiered at Cannes, the Toronto International Film Festival, Tribeca Film Festival, Miami’s Art Basel, and numerous other festivals. Some alumni work as video editors and producers at prestigious media outlets including MTV, USA Networks, Entertainment Weekly, The New Yorker, People, and Time, while others are directors for estab­lished commercial production companies or have formed their own successful media businesses. We celebrate their accomplishments and look forward to yours.

personal work, which can be part of a graduate school application, be submitted to galleries and festivals, or serve as a demonstration of students’ skills for entry into the professional landscape.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE In the first semester of freshman year, film majors take Film Fundamentals and Technical Practices, two rigorous and comprehensive courses, which provide essential foun­da­tional training. Students then delve into various modes of filmmaking in Fiction I, Nonfiction, Expanded Cinema, and Fiction II. In the junior year, in addition to our core technical courses, the curriculum opens up to more electives, more collaborations with students across majors, and deeper study in the student’s chosen mode.

The culmination of the program is a guided but selfdefined senior project, publicly screened in New York City (in recent years, at Brooklyn Academy of Music).

Students learn in an intimate workshop setting through screenings, readings, technical demonstrations, production exercises, class critiques, and visiting professionals, as well as through internship programs in the many film, video, and postproduction studios throughout the city.

Upon graduation, students will have produced their senior project as well as compiled a sample reel of

“I’d rather have my voice be powerful and profound and courageous and reach an audience through my art.

My voice is my art.”—Mickalene Thomas (B.F.A. ’00) Pratt’s major in Fine Arts offers a deep and sustained dialogue between imagining and making. Embedded in a curriculum of required and elective courses in art history and the liberal arts and sciences, Fine Arts studio courses impart the modes of creative problem-solving, technical skills, and risk-taking that transform students into accomplished artists who have confidence in their ideas and can take their work to the next level.

Pratt’s excellent shop facilities and dedicated tech­ nical staff generously support students’ ambitions as they develop their visions and give them form. Sources of inspir­ation and nourishment are close at hand; all students have free access to the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Museum of Arts and Design, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Frick Collection.

Graduates of the B.F.A. program pursue diverse creative and professional lives as studio artists, community artists, art educators, gallery assistants, entrepreneurs, museum curators, arts administrators, art critics, and art historians. Pratt’s location in New York’s thriving art comm­ unity offers students many opportunities for integrating their Pratt education with professional networking through internships, contacts with visiting artists and critics, gallery visits, and exhibitions of student work that are open to the public. Every Pratt student and graduate has access to the Institution’s career development and counseling resources, including databases of jobs and paid internships in New York City, the creative capital of the United States.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE B.F.A. in Fine Arts All first-year students take the Foundation Program’s core curriculum, along with required art history and liberal arts courses, and begin the Fine Arts major curriculum in the fall of the second year. While continuing with their required art history and general education coursework, second-year students take more focused courses in their chosen area of emphasis, whether painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture + integrated practices, or jewelry.

In addition to their studio requirements, all Fine Arts students take a series of departmental seminars that address social, historical, and critical issues in contemporary art.

Beyond their major requirements, students may use elective credits to take courses of their choosing, to pursue a minor in a second field or discipline, or to gain internship

experience. The senior year is focused on developing a self-directed body of work for the senior thesis exhibition in the spring semester. Departmental courses in professional practice help students prepare their portfolios and make a realistic plan for sustaining their careers after graduation through approaching funders, galleries, residency opportunities, and employers.

“I am proud of the fact that I attended Pratt. There is a purity of intent that I learned about art-making and a way of trusting my eye first.” —Philip Gefter (B.F.A. Photography and Painting ’73) New York City is the focal point of the photography world and Brooklyn is the center of the contemporary art community. Our program provides students opportunities to develop photography techniques and concepts—in other words, the freedom to create powerful, meaningful images. Our methodology works. Consider our alumni, who have gone on to work for publications such as The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaar, National Geographic, and VICE. Graduates of the program have gone on to pursue careers as photo editors, editorial photographers, gallerists, museum directors, fashion industry executives, and pro­fes­sors of the medium. Our graduates are in demand precisely because they are trained as both artists and professionals.

New York City has an abundance of internship and job opportunities for photography students. Past students have interned with well-known fine art and commercial photographers such as Gregory Crewdson, Annie Leibovitz, and David LaChappelle; for museums such as the Metro­ politan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art; and for photography companies such as Impossible Project and Lomography.

With working photographers and curators as teachers, students have access to some of the most respected photographic professionals in New York City. Our photo­ graphy faculty includes Guggenheim Fellows, Emmy winners, fine art book publishers, high-end commercial photographers, and artists whose work can be found in the collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Accessibility to facilities and equipment is extremely important. Photography facilities include lighting studios, black-and-white darkrooms, fully equipped state-of-theart digital computer labs, and large-format digital printing studios. Film and digital cameras, lighting gear, tablets, and more are available for checkout from our equipment room.

Recently renovated labs, classrooms, and a lecture hall provide students with premier learning facilities. A new photography gallery hosts exhibitions by world-renowned artists and photography students alike.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The Department of Photography is committed to the education of artists and professionals who have acquired a comprehensive understanding of the artistic and

95

pro­fes­sional options inherent in the field. The curriculum provides a comprehensive photographic education through a series of core classes that promote students’ technical and conceptual development. Photography majors move from a highly structured program in their freshman and sophomore years to a self‑determined program in their junior and senior years. This approach is intended to facilitate the transition from student to independent artist and professional. Completion of the curriculum culminates with an exhibition in the Pratt Photography Gallery, as well as a group show in a New York City gallery, and a collaborative photography pub­ lication. Small class sizes help to promote a strong sense of community in the intimate setting of Pratt’s Brooklyn campus. Students are given opportunities to meet artists and critics through the Pratt Photography Lectures, visiting critiques, and artist studio and museum visits.

This access can help students build contacts and relation­ ships with influential professionals in the field. Like a small town within a big city, we look to give students their own voice, so they can employ it in whichever direction they choose.

BACHELOR OF FINE ARTS IN PHOTOGRAPHY Undergraduates establish strong photographic practices and discourses through the study of analog and digital processes, the history and theory of photography, and the development of critical thinking and writing skills through required and elective courses in photography, other creative disciplines, and the liberal arts. Participating in this experience prepares students to actively contribute to culture and society as leaders in the photographic arts and applied industries, as well as to pursue graduate studies in related fields. Graduates are expected to demon­strate excellence in artistic vision, professional skills, innovation, and a contextual understanding of their work in contemporary culture.

Pratt provides one of the most comprehensive design educations available, supported by a distinguished faculty and exceptional resources, and located in the borough of Brooklyn, New York’s design and cultural epicenter.

Gifted students from across the United States and around the world collaborate and learn at Pratt, weaving creative energy and opportunity into an unmatched educational experience.

The faculty consists of professional designers, artists, and practi­tioners, including numerous recipients of prestigious awards, such as Tiffany, Fulbright, and Guggenheim fellowships. The faculty’s works, projects, and publications are recognized and respected around the world.

The School of Design offers degrees in communications design, fashion design, industrial design, and interior design. The intensive, studio-based programs of study are paired with studies in the liberal arts and sciences, creating a dynamic context for stimulating intellectual and creative inquiry.

The School of Design programs are also enriched by Pratt’s dis­ting­uished programs in the School of Art and the School of Architecture—all within the broader cultural campus of New York City.

Two parallel objectives guide every program at Pratt. The first is an emphasis on professional development. Students gain the techniques, skills, methodologies, and vocabulary they require to succeed as productive artists, designers, and scholars. The second objective recognizes that this technical experience only takes root within a complex cultural context. Therefore, students in the School of Design also develop the critical judgment and historical perspective they need to become creative problem solvers in the international arena.

The mission of the School of Design is to educate those who will make and shape our built and mediated environ­ment, our aesthetic surroundings, and our collective future. We are dedicated to the primacy of studio practice and the transformative power of creativity. We educate leaders in the creative professions to identify, understand, shape, and benefit from the challenges of a rapidly changing world. Our courses are designed to develop critical thinking skills, deepen understanding, enable practice, and empower visionary action. The School of Design is dedicated to developing creative leadership in a world that requires it.

The Foundation Program at Pratt Institute is the first year of the four-year education a Pratt student receives in the the School of Art or School of Design. The academic year 2017-18 will mark the launch of a newly revised first year curriculum. Pratt’s faculty from throughout the Institute have worked together to carefully craft a comprehensive year-long course of study that will prepare students for future study in the Schools of Art and Design.

The curriculum has been designed with two major outcomes in mind. Students will be introduced to concepts, materials, and methods of making common to all art and design practice. Additionally, and equally important, students will become confident practitioners of the design, or creative, process. Students will leave the first year with the confidence and conviction necessary to continue their studies in their chosen field.

The Foundation faculty is aware that learning is an acquired skill. As much as instructing students in skills and concepts, the faculty will introduce students to what learning means in the new environment of college. Learning in higher education is not the same as learning in K-12, and learning in an art and design school is more distinctive still.

The first year curriculum will take students through periods of guided instruction, to generative learning and problem solving, to self-directed projects with explicit communicative and expressive outcomes. Students will learn to confront desirable difficulties and arrive at original, well-crafted solutions in traditional media as well as the most recent digital applications.

The first-year course of study consists of Foundation Studio Core, Themes in Art and Culture I and II (HA-111 and HA-112), and Introduction to Literary and Critical Studies (HMS-101A) in the first semester and one course of their choice from the General Education menu in the second semester. The Fashion Department is an exception and has its own first-year program. Film and Photo majors have a modified first year program. Transfer students will be evaluated for advanced standing, with proper documentation (transcript and portfolio) by the Office of Admissions.

The studio core consists of two yearlong courses and two single-semester courses. The two yearlong experiences are Representation and Visualization I and II; and Light, Color, Design Lab and Studio. In these courses students will gain a strong grounding in ways of seeing and making that will range from the time honored to the experimental. Six-hour studio classes allow for solid instruction in drawing systems, figure drawing, and work from observation and imagination. Students will gain fluency in color and design elements and practice their application in combination to communicate meaning.

Alumni of the communications design major at Pratt thrive at the center of the increasingly complex and converging disciplines of illustration, art direction, and graphic design.

Recognizing the commonalities in these areas for more than 40 years, the department has a long, successful history of building both singular visual communications and entire careers on a solid foundation of conceptual thinking, expressed through words, images, strategies, motion, and sound. Prepared for future developments in tech­no­ logy and delivery systems, students learn to craft effective messaging and systems design across a wide range of platforms to redefine problems, identify opportunities, develop solutions, and find their audience wherever they prefer to be found. In communications design, we teach our students how to be nimble and creative problemsolvers, elegant image-makers, and analytical individuals who are defined more by the impact of their ideas than the titles on their business cards.

In the rapidly changing media landscape, where form is more fluid than ever and the boundaries between these areas of concentration continue to dissolve, our quest to produce well-rounded communicators does not stop with the convergence of disciplines. Understanding that design is not just about the end product on the page or screen, we educate students to communicate both visually and verbally, and to design effective and edifying solutions for a wide range of contemporary issues. Choosing from over 40 electives focused on creating content, entre­pre­ neurial projects, the partnership of business and design, social media, design thinking, and audio branding, to name a few, our students acquire the skills needed to realize their visions—whether working within a corporate structure or starting out on their own. Select teams also have the opportunity to design and produce the school’s awardwinning yearbook (the only solely student-run publication of its kind in a school of art and design) and provide services for vital nonprofit organizations through Design Corps, our pro-bono design course.

Thanks to our industry-leading faculty, our students present their work to the designers and art directors who will be evaluating and hiring them when they graduate, and have access to even greater opportunities through internships within the diverse networks those faculty members represent.

We prize mental agility as highly as craftsmanship so that graduates from our program are able to chart their own courses successfully, using their unique vision as their guide. If your goal is to develop your own creative voice rather than be part of a chorus, if you wish to explore and then cross boundaries, communications design at Pratt is the major for you.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE

at the most progressive and respected agencies in the country and the world.

Emphasis in Illustration With a concentration in illustration at Pratt, your education will differ from that offered by most programs at other schools of art and design, specifically because it is part of a larger major and not a stand-alone discipline. This means our graduates will enter a field which itself is more innovative and exciting every year, not only with grounding in all media, including painting and drawing, but also con­ver­­sant with typography, web design, motion and photo­graphy, as well as 2- and 3-D design and current computer software. Recommended electives include sequential art, independent publishing, and illustrated typography, all of which augment the students’ solid foundation in visually sophisticated and conceptually based storytelling. Our alumni can—and do—succeed in widely varied careers in advertising, graphic design, film, display, fashion merchandising, and children’s books, and have the skills necessary to oversee publications and direct other illustrators. Our students who choose to concentrate in illustration are successful, in short, because they are prepared for everything, including the changing face of illustration itself.

Emphasis in Advertising Art Direction With a concentration in advertising art direction at Pratt, you will be charged with conceiving and executing brilliant ideas that both engage consumers and move them to action. You’ll learn what it takes to be an art director in a top advertising agency or branding firm—or to start an agency of your own. While there are many kinds of artists, designers, and photographers involved on a project or campaign, it is the “vision” of the art director that brings all of the elements together for successful visual and verbal messaging. With that in mind, you’ll explore every detail that affects a brand or campaign, from typography and imagery to sound, motion, and the three-dimensional environment. You will manage the consumer’s first aware­ ness through user experience and delivery. A faculty of award-winning industry professionals will help you develop your own message-driven creative process and teach you how to communicate conceptually and effectively.

They’ll work with you on brand development, utilizing the potential of established and emerging platforms, and developing strategic insights that will make your portfolio stand out from the crowd. If you’re an artistically inclined dreamer who sees no limit to the power and potential of an idea, advertising art direction is the course of study and career for you. Our students have received some of the industry’s most coveted prizes and are working

Communications Design

Emphasis in Graphic Design With a concentration in graphic design at Pratt, you will learn the balance of conceptual problem-solving and technical skills that have earned the Institute and its graduates and students the world-class reputation they deserve, and that can be applied to the design of deliver­ ables such as books and websites, or the development of complex systems and user experiences. A diverse suite of core visual communication courses trains students not only to translate or give form—print or digital, static or dynamic—to content, but also to generate that content, whether verbal, illustrative, or photographic. Intensive courses and electives then allow for further development, refinement, and exploration of typographic and inter­ active possibilities. In the industry, graphic designers are often seen as the people who put all the components together. Pratt graphic designers craft those components them­selves and, as a result, graduate to become not just design professionals but also authors and authorities in their fields.

In the end, Pratt’s Undergraduate Communications Design program is a multidisciplinary and trans-disciplinary studio where students from each area of emphasis engage and challenge each other, developing their own concept­ually sound approaches to a variety of solutions.

Their career paths are many, varied, and convergent, with success and fulfillment as the common denominators.

From Pratt Institute's inspirational campus in Brooklyn, the Depart­ment of Fashion offers students a concept-led, craft‑based education at the heart of one of the world’s cultural epicenters.

Fashion education at Pratt is transdisciplinary in nature, closely allied with illustration, photography, film, perform­ ance, visual studies, and material culture. The practice of fashion is taught as one’s cultural embodiment within a social framework and learned through rigorous attention to production, craft, and contemporary aesthetics.

Students build a vision and a language through conceptual processes emphasizing curiosity, imagination, improvi­ sation, and play. They communicate that vision through proficiency in construction and illustration skills, fluency with materials, traditional techniques, and digital tech­ nologies, as well as synthesis of germane research. Inter­ disc­iplinary and collaborative classroom opportunities set the program apart, offering students tools and creative engagement beyond the fashion milieu.

One of the world’s most prestigious independent colleges of art and design, Pratt is globally recognized for its distinguished academic record. Graduates in fashion design carry the hallmarks of the department into the working world, where they are recognized for a commit­ment to ingenuity, authenticity, creativity, and personal vision, as well as an informed versatility. Their artistic vision both reflects and challenges the needs of contemp­orary culture.

A Fashion Program in the Fashion Capital Pratt uses the city of New York and the borough of Brooklyn as its urban laboratory, offering students a wealth of opportunities to gain crucial experience beyond the classroom environment. Museums, archives, and design studios familiarize students with design processes and histories; internships at top design companies such as Thom Browne, Zero Maria Cornejo, The Row, Altuzarra, Maryam Nassir Zadeh, Oscar de la Renta, and Creatures of the Wind offer hands-on experience and professional networking. All Pratt fashion design students participate in annual design competitions sponsored by the Council of Fashion Designers of America and YMA Fashion Scholarship Fund. Competitions sponsored by companies such as Joe’s Blackbook and Levi’s Made + Crafted are integrated into the curriculum, providing avenues for scholarship support and exposure within the fashion community.

Public critiques with faculty, peers, and outside design authorities help students crystallize and articulate their design visions. A mandate to show work publicly—in gallery environments, on the street, in showrooms—instills appreciation for the true spectacle of fashion. The fashion design faculty is composed of esteemed professional

127

practitioners from across the industry, including designers at top houses, artists, historians, and curators—Susan Cianciolo, Daryl Kerrigan, Mike Echkaus of Eckhaus Latta, and Beverley Semmes are among them. Faculty work has been featured in a wide range of publications including Vogue, WWD, Artforum, Interview, Wallpaper, The New Yorker, New York Magazine, The New York Times, and countless others.

Guest practitioners from all fashion backgrounds join faculty in the classroom as visiting lecturers, advisers, and critics. Each semester, a full roster of fashion experts is invited to talk theory and practice with Pratt students.

The Curriculum The fashion design curriculum fosters development of indivi­dual identity within a collaborative environment, inform­ed by self-reflection and engaged critique. A pro­ fessionally active and accomplished faculty challenges students to seek beyond the conventional. Students are prompted to have an ongoing dialog between sketch, flat 2-D patternmaking, and 3-D drape. They are expected to work consistently—executing the fashion idea through the making of innovative collections.

The Department of Fashion offers a wide variety of elective and advanced courses in topics such as accessory, NOSO technology, and advanced topical courses to complement the core curriculum. The department offers international exchange programs and intensives abroad.

Internship Pratt students are required to complete three credits of internship during their senior year. Students have the opportunity to explore different aspects of the New York fashion design industry through their choice of internships.

The internship experience provides them with job search­ ing and interview skills, as well as practice in how to write a résumé and present their portfolio. A Pratt faculty adviser guides each student throughout the experience, making sure the students’ learning objectives are met.

Alumni Pratt fashion graduates go on to do remarkable things in the industry. Many develop their own collections and labels, and virtually all find placement at top design houses in New York and beyond. Pratt alumni design for Calvin Klein, Oscar de la Renta, Monse, Thom Browne, Creatures of the Wind, Maryam Nassir Zadeh, Adam Selman, Opening Ceremony, Creatures of Comfort, Ralph Lauren, and countless others.

In the last few years, the field of industrial design has gone through dramatic changes.

We have seen the revolution in digital technology, which allowed billions of people around the globe to connect, communicate, and share information.

We have witnessed a wave of mass creativity, which started to erase the old distinction between consumers, producers, and designers by allowing wider audiences to participate in the creative process.

We have observed the convergence of industrial design with scientific research—from biology and genetics to artificial intelligence and robotics—allowing things from the realm of science fiction to take shape in real life.

We have at last begun to address problems of the “other 90 percent” of the world, trying to solve problems of poverty, hunger, energy, health, and other troubling issues of the disadvantaged world population by design.

We have come to realize our responsibility for the planet’s climate and limited resources, and for our handling of the environment, industry, and agriculture.

The Industrial Design program at Pratt is set to prepare students to become professional designers of the 21st century, capable of tackling these momentous changes.

Whether working with industry or acting as entre­pre­ neurs, students will be able to create products, systems, and environments that help to innovate and improve everyday objects and situations.

To become professionals, students learn aesthetic values of visual abstraction, from line and color to develop­­ment of complex three-dimensional form.

Students study to practice design as an iterative process that includes ideation, sketching, prototype making, and testing of their projects. Hands-on skills learned in a model shop are complemented with digital skills practiced in computer labs. From their sophomore year on, students are taught the importance of critical thinking: the art of observation and discovery, and the ability to uncover and formulate real-world problems in need of design solutions.

Faculty members in the Department of Industrial Design are professional educators and designers; many of them are principals of their own successful businesses and recipients of prestigious industry awards. Through­ out their years of study, students are exposed to the cultural richness and diversity of New York City, with its world-class museums, galleries, and art and design events. Brooklyn, in particular, has recently become a hot spot for entre­preneurial craft and design culture, and students can learn a great deal from immersing them­selves in the activities of this bustling contemporary design scene.

135

Four years at Pratt will set each student on a path toward a rewarding and culturally relevant career, which can be tailored to specific interests and abilities.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE Pratt B.I.D. alumni are designers, artists, educators, entrepreneurs, researchers, and corporate leaders. This diversity comes from a program of study that allows freedom to explore. In the sophomore and junior years, students take core courses, which provide grounding in drawing, color, 3-D form, model making, and digital computer skills. At the same time, they take design studios, which introduce them to critical thinking, problem solving, and environmental responsibility. A variety of studio options are open in the junior and senior years where students can take specialized studios that respond to their individual interests and skills, such as: ll Product design ll Furniture ll Tabletop and food design ll Shoes and athletic gear ll Exhibition design ll Interdisciplinary design By the end of senior year, students complete a cap­ stone studio, which follows students’ choice of subject and delineates the direction of their future careers.

The capstone studio project is presented at the annual design show, a public event attended by industry leaders and potential employers.

The department offers study-abroad exchanges with a number of leading European design schools and a summer program in furniture making in Copenhagen through the Danish International School.

Pratt Institute’s B.F.A. in Interior Design was ranked second in the U.S. by DesignIntelligence 2017 and is accredited by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA). Since 2006, we have maintained consistent rankings in the top three across the country.

Studying interior design at Pratt is an adventure enhanced by being in New York City, known as the interior design capital of the United States. Students enrolled in this chal­lenging course of study are prepared for a career in a profession with enormous potential. Pratt’s program was one of the first in the country to educate about interior design; and, we continue to be a leading innovator in the discipline. Our alumni have made significant contributions to the quality and character of our built environment, and it is certain that tomorrow’s graduates will continue to make a sustainable impact on our culture and sense of place.

Our Interior Design Program is an architecturallyoriented program with emphasis on spatial design as well as surface articulation. All aspects of space—scale, proportion, configuration, and light sources, as well as textures, materials, and color—are studied in relation to their effects on the human spirit. Students begin interior design in the sophomore year in a stimulating studio setting that encourages a collective, cooperative, and competitive atmosphere. Students work closely in small groups with their professor on projects that develop in size and complexity through the six semesters of design studio. The senior year culminates with a thesis project where students develop a body of critical research on a particular interior issue in the fall semester, that is then developed into a design project in spring semester.

Our curriculum covers all aspects of interior design, beginning with the fundamentals of drawing through to the complexities of building construction, architectural drawing, computer graphics, professional practice, and contract administration. The students’ experience is enhanced by a balance of intellectual exploration, practical experience in the design studio, and the development of skills needed to become successful professionals and leaders in the field.

Students are encouraged to take advantage of the many courses offered at Pratt that will enable them to fully develop their interests and talents. Electives may be chosen from virtually any department in the Institute; an enormous choice of courses are available. Interested students may also apply to spend the spring term of the junior year at the Danish International School (DIS) studying interior architecture in Copenhagen. The program at DIS includes extensive study tours throughout Scandinavia.

Students are integrated into the professional world through professional practice coursework and intern­­ships

143

that serve to prepare students for certification. Pratt students create important relationships in school and become part of the larger alumni network when they graduate.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE B.F.A. in Interior Design Students have the opportunity to study interior design as≈an integral element of the built environment by gener­ ating creative solutions that integrate an understanding of light and color, craft and making, material research, changing technologies, sustainable practice, current issues, and a critical understanding of the global cultural history and context affecting the interior environment. At Pratt, students focus on a variety of interior design projects that grow more complex as the curriculum proceeds.

Students begin their study of interior design in the sophomore year upon completion of a required year in Foundation. Individuals interested in transferring to Pratt from other institutions are also encouraged to apply.

The structure of the 126-credit program, prepares graduates for a leadership role in an established profes­ sion. To support our commitment to technological excellence, personal laptop computers are required for all≈undergraduate students. For more information, please refer to www.pratt.edu/academics/technologyresources/laptop-programs/interior.

Minor in Interior Design The Department of Interior Design offers a 15-credit minor to undergraduate architecture, construction management, and industrial design students, as well as interested students in other fields of study. Students may apply to the minor after meeting with the department as early as the first semester of the sophomore year. Determination of the required studio level and other courses to complete the minor will be based upon a review of the student’s transcript (and portfolio). The completion of the minor will be noted on the student’s transcript but will not be shown on the diploma.

Critical and Visual Studies History of Art and Design Writing Classes in the Liberal Arts Minors

Dean Andrew W. Barnes, Ph.D. las-dean@pratt.edu Assistant to the Dean Sincere Brooks sbroo397@pratt.edu Office Tel: 718.636.3570  Fax: 718.399.4586 www.pratt.edu/las

The mission of the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences (SLAS) is to enable students to explore areas of knowledge and to reflect critically and creatively on aesthetic forms and on intellectual and cultural practices. Students conduct research, substantiate arguments, and communicate in the broadest possible sociohistorical, literary, and scientific contexts. The school’s primary goal is for students to make continuing contributions as critical thinkers and creative professionals.

SLAS plays two major roles in the undergraduate curriculum.

First, it provides a well-rounded education for students in the professional programs, offering a general education curriculum in humanities and media studies, mathematics and science, social science, and cultural studies. With both depth and breadth unequaled by other colleges of art and design, SLAS also offers a suite of minors to complement the professional degrees: Cinema Studies, Creative Writing, Cultural Studies, History of Art and Design, Literature and Writing, Media Studies, Performance and Performance Studies, Philosophy, Psychology, and Sustainability.

Second, the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences offers three undergraduate degrees: the B.A. in Critical and Visual Studies, the B.F.A. in Writing, and the B.F.A. in the History of Art and Design.

The Critical and Visual Studies program is for the curious and imaginative student who wants to pursue studies in the liberal arts and sciences while immersed in Pratt’s unique environment of creative openness and intellectual experimentation. At the core of the program is the understanding that the integration of theory, method, and experience is crucial to learning. Here, every aspect of social life—from street art to political systems, from international media to the global economy—is a potential subject of study. The program provides a unique interdisci­plinary framework within which our students explore the liberal arts through the study of the artistic, social, and political meanings of cultural and aesthetic production.

The chief goal of the undergraduate writing degree is the grad­ uation of creative writers who are well-versed in literature, literary theory, and other modes of critical thinking. At the center of the curriculum are creative writing studios in which a range of forms are explored. The studios are complemented by core courses that focus on essential, but too often neglected, aspects of the literary arts—word choice, grammar, logic, exposition, and critical

155

thought. The location of the program in New York City is taken full advantage of, primarily in Writer’s Forum, a course that invites writers, editors, and literary agents to campus to address the writing majors, and the Internship Program, in which students can select from an array of internships, from St. Mark’s Poetry Project to Saturday Night Live.

The undergraduate degree in the history of art and design offers students the chance to study on a campus that attracts leading artists. Students have the opportunity to study 17th‑century frescoes in Venice, 19th-century Dogon figures in the conservation laboratory at the Brooklyn Museum, and 21st‑century performance art as curatorial interns at the Guggenheim Museum. History of art and design students bring a wide array of experiences and backgrounds to their studies and graduate the program with new knowledge, experience, and a professional network to inform and support their careers for many years.

Critical and Visual Studies is a bachelor of arts program for the curious and imaginative student who wants to pursue studies in the liberal arts and sciences while immersed in Pratt’s unique environ­ment of creative openness and intellectual experimentation.

We believe that the liberal arts and sciences bring vitality, creativity, and practical application to intellectual practice. Here, every aspect of social life—from street art to political systems, from international media to the global economy—is a potential subject of your studies.

The program provides a unique interdisciplinary framework within which students explore the liberal arts through the study of the artistic, social, and political meanings of cultural and aesthetic production.

The Liberal Arts and Sciences Context at Pratt: Strong Foundations, Individualized Programs Our B.A. program features a first-year curriculum that builds a foundation in many classic and innovative texts of philosophy, the social sciences, and the humanities, and in the writings of both historical and contemporary thinkers who are of special importance to critical theory and visual studies. Students then choose from a gen­erous selection of electives and concentrations from within the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences and across the Institute in architecture, art history, art and design, and planning.

The fundamental goal of the faculty in Critical and Visual Studies is to provide students with an education that helps them become critical, articulate, widely read, intellectually flexible, and culturally savvy.

Your studies in the program will give you: ll a critical understanding of culture that is grounded in philosophy, history, the social sciences, and humanities. ll competency in social theory, analytical research methods, and various techniques of communication. ll the ability to develop and critically integrate written, oral, visual, and spatial expression. ll the flexibility to pursue in-depth studies and make links between academic work and the wider world through internships in cultural institutions, especially nonprofit arts and public service agencies. ll a faculty whose work and teaching is on the cutting edge of scholarship and cultural criticism.

Because of our unique context, students benefit from a stimulating atmosphere of intellectual and artistic innovation. The Critical and Visual Studies curriculum allows students the opportunity to take electives in the traditional studio arts and in new media. Students can work in a variety of media, developing their writing skills and working

157

experimentally to integrate the verbal and visual, creating new combinations of word and image.

Critical and Visual Studies faculty members are committed to a wide range of intellectual endeavors and public engagement, but are united in a dedication to a new approach to the liberal arts and sciences that empha­sizes education and not simply “schooling” or training. Here, education is a matter of “learning to learn.” Our goal is to provide our graduates with a foundation for independent lifelong learning. Students are prepared to thrive in a future economy where they will need critical and analytical skills to move seamlessly among changing economic sectors and evolving career paths.

The faculty’s diverse teaching and research interests include philosophy, sociology, ethnography, cultural studies, media studies, urban studies, social practice, aesthetics and visual culture, globalization, imperialism, colonialism and post-colonialism, critical theory, psycho­ logy, gender and sexuality, world history, history and historiography, cinema and documentary film, literature and creative writing, theater and per­form­ance studies, environmental studies, sustainability, and the sociology of science and technology. The faculty’s area specialties include the Americas, Africa, the Mediterranean, Central Asia, the Middle East, the Pacific Rim, and the Indian Ocean.

Our students and faculty participate in the dynamic array of cultural events and institutions offered by New York City. Students immerse themselves in the intellectual life of the city, both outside the gates of the Institute and by participating in public programming planned by the faculty members and the organizations with which they are affiliated: ll The Departmental Speaker Series, which brings renowned scholars and intellectuals to the Institute and gives our students the opportunity to meet and interact with them. Past speakers have included: Nora Alter, Alain Badiou, Robin Blackburn, Susan Buck-Morss, Tina Campt, Simon Critchley, Jim Czarnecki, Gina Dent, Robert Gooding-Williams, Anna Grimshaw, Timothy Hall, Saidiya Hartmam, Randy Martin, Tom McCarthy, Gyan Prakash, Vicente Rafael, Martha Rosler, Sukhdev Sandhu, Michael Taussig, and Wendy Woon. ll The Scholar-in-Residence Program, which brings a major contemporary thinker or artist to campus for an extended residency. Past scholars-in-residence have included Stanley Aronowitz, Patricia Clough, Juan Cole, Susan Meiselas, and Laura Mulvey. ll Film Screenings, which offer provo­cative forums for timely debates about current social, political, and aesthetic issues. Filmmakers accom­pany their film screenings and ad­dress interested students after­ward, making for lively discussions that extend beyond the classroom.

Critical and Visual Studies

ll The Wallabout Film Festival, which is a student film festival produced and curated by an interdisciplinary team of students from Pratt Institute, showcases films by innovative student filmmakers from around the world. ll Field trips to see current museum and gallery exhibi­ tions; to network with artists, architects, designers, critics, and curators; and to engage with the city at large. ll Senior Thesis Readings, which are public presentations by seniors of their thesis research. These present­ations and discussions are a chance for students to get to know the work of peers and to gain perspective on their own intellectual development.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The First Year: Foundation The first year of the program provides students with a foundation in history, philosophy, critical theory, and science studies. The centerpiece is a first-year seminar in which students become acquainted with the range of subjects, methods, and theories from which, later in their careers at Pratt, they will be able to assemble their own specialized paths of study.

The Second Year: Free Electives, “Symposium,” and “Moderation” The second year of the program is rich in elective offerings that permit students to explore and expand the interests they discovered in their first year of study. The second year is anchored by the two-course sequence of “Symposium” and “Moderation.” In “Symposium,” accomplished scholars in the liberal arts, some from the Institute and some from outside, lecture and lead a seminar in which students gain exposure to the standards of professional intellectual work. In “Moderation,” students are guided by a faculty committee to reflect on their studies during semesters one through three. “Moderation” enables students to take stock of their initial experiences in the program, examine their goals and interests, evaluate their performance, establish their commitment to a course of study, and chart their final two years of college.

The Third Year: Guided Electives and the Pursuit of a Focus of Study In the third year of the program, students use their indivi­ dual interests, as dis­cover­ed and refined in “Moderation,” to pursue an independent concentration. The concen­ tration can follow a standard course of study in the liberal arts, such as anthropology, art history, history, philosophy,

or psychology; an interdisciplinary course of study, such as cultural studies, gender studies, urban studies, or visual studies; or an individually designed course of study, such as mass media and society, psychology and the arts, or war and culture. Students can also add minors in studio art to their programs.

The Fourth Year: Senior Seminar and Senior Thesis In the fourth year, students round out their education by taking all-Institute electives in which they explore topics and problems outside of their core areas of study.

At the same time, students complete their individual concent­rations with the capstone courses “Senior Seminar” and “Senior Thesis,” in which they are guided through the process of developing, researching, and writing a grad­ uate school-level essay. The senior thesis, which is the end product of this experience, hones students’ abilities to express themselves, argue their ideas, and make fresh sense of the cultural world.

Pratt Institute is an exceptional place to study the history of art and design. Our landmarked campus attracts leading artists, designers, historians, and theorists and is only minutes from the studios, galleries, private collections, libraries, and museums that make New York a premier center of art and design.

Our faculty is composed of distinguished scholars and mentors who focus on the intellectual and profes­sion­ al growth of our students. They bring a broad range of expertise and different methodologies to the classroom; in addition, about half of our faculty also has extensive museum and curatorial experience. Their expertise, dedication, and original thinking are evident in our curricu­ lum and in the academic opportunities and professional connections faculty members create for their students, and most importantly, are reflected in the quality of our students’ work.

Explore our degree options and you will find students studying 16th-century frescoes in Venice, 20th-century product design, and 21st-century performance art at the New Museum. Students come from a wide range of backgrounds, and leave with knowledge, experience, and a professional network that will inform and support their careers for many years.

Every art and design history student’s program includes “behind-the-scenes” experiences, not only at exhibitions and museums but also in the Institute itself.

Connections with other departments in all areas of fine arts and design—interior, industrial, communications, and fashion—offer a unique platform for an interaction between practitioners and theoreticians. Our students witness the making of art and design firsthand.

The History of Art and Design Department offers exciting lectures and seminars with a wide range of approaches, from connoisseurship to the most recent theoretical approaches. Frequent excursions and intern­ ships result from our extensive working relationships with the city’s museums, galleries, and cultural organ­iz­ ations and are a crucial part of the curriculum.

History of Art and Design Degree Program’s Philosophy Degrees in the history of art and design have been developed with a keen sense of Pratt’s history as a tech­ nical school. In the context of a school long devoted to the practicing artist, designer, architect, and librarian, the historical perspective is attached to the concrete example. Its theory is developed from the specific to the general. At Pratt, the definition of art history is broad.

It includes design history of clothing, interiors, communi­ cation, industrial products, photography, film, and

163

animation, as well as urban design and the history of painting, sculpture, architecture, and graphic arts. These courses have been developed to respond equally to the needs of the art/design student and to aspiring historians.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The History of Art and Design Department provides courses and a foundation of studies for all Pratt students.

All undergraduates in the School of Art and the School of Design are required to take 12 credits of art and design history, including introductory survey courses that cover prehistory to the 20th century. The surveys are complemented by elective courses in a wide range of fields, which are designed to cater to specific interests of the varied majors within the Schools of Art and Design.

The department offers undergraduates a unique program that includes studio courses.

Students entering with an Advanced Placement score of four or five in art history may apply for exemption from the first semester survey and are allowed to substitute an elective in the survey area for the second semester of survey. Entering freshmen who have done well in a full-year art history survey course (but did not get a four or five score or did not take AP Art History) may also apply to the chair of the History of Art and Design Department to substitute upper-level electives in each survey area for the required courses. Courses are open to all students at Pratt Institute.

All undergraduate students in the department are encouraged to do an internship at a major New York institution.

Pratt in Venice Pratt students and a select few from other institutions are offered the opportunity to live and study in Venice each summer for six weeks in June and July. They work with Pratt faculty and experts from Italian universities and cultural organizations in painting, drawing/printmaking, art history, and/or materials and techniques of Venetian art. The program fosters interaction between art history and studio arts in the context of the visual richness of Venice and the depth of intellectual resources available in local museums, libraries, and monuments.

B.F.A. in History of Art and Design The B.F.A. program affords a grounding in the philosophy, literature, and criticism of the history of art and design.

Students will take specially designed foundation courses and the survey classes. They will continue with additional credits in liberal arts (English, humanities, sciences, social sciences, and foreign language), studio, and free electives. Majors will take upper-level electives in film and design, architecture, non-Western, pre-Renaissance, Renaissance to Rococo, and 19th-, 20th-, or 21st-century art. Theory and Methodology, Chemistry of Art, and a Senior Seminar are requirements for completion of the degree.

History of Art and Design Minor Undergraduates at Pratt who choose to minor in the history of art and design are required to complete 18 credits of art or design history, or six (including one 500-level course) beyond the requirement of 12 credits. Prospective minors should see the department chair for advisement on appropriate choice of courses.

Writing

Chair Beth Loffreda Assistant to the Chair Andrea Bott abott33@pratt.edu

A writer writes. There is simply no other way to learn. It’s hard and humbling but tremendously exhilarating. As an aspiring writer, you already know this. That’s what drew you to Pratt Institute’s Writing program.

In most writing programs, students must complete two years of liberal arts requirements before they are allowed to begin writing. At Pratt, writing majors start writing on the first day of freshman year and continue for the next four years, completing a book-length work of poetry, fiction, or creative nonfiction as a senior thesis. In other words, they learn by doing and by having their efforts rigorously responded to in critiques by hard-working peers and inspired, accomplished instructors.

Along the way, writing majors read widely and deeply in contemporary and classical literatures; they study literary and media theory, science and math, grammar and logic. But the primary focus is on writing, and the curric­ ulum flows outward from, and is fueled by, writing as the chief activity.

Beyond the writing studios that form the core of the curriculum are more specialized, tutorial-sized courses such as The Book as Compositional Form, How to Break into Journalism, Screenplay Writing, Blogging, The Graphic Novel, Crime Writing, Bending Genre, and Experimental Fiction.

The Writing program also takes full advantage of the fact that it is located in New York City, arguably the publishing capital of the world, and in Brooklyn, the borough now most densely populated with writers and artists. New York City provides brilliant faculty, an endless stream of famous writers who come to campus to read from their work or serve as writers-in-residence, and a host of internship opportunities at institutions ranging from St. Mark’s Poetry Project to Saturday Night Live.

Bachelor of Fine Arts in Writing The Writing program’s goal is the creation of wellrounded writers. At the heart of the curriculum are the Writing Studios, through which students pro­­gress from word choice, grammar, and clarity of expression to more advanced narrative and poetic forms and specialized genres, culminating in the creation of a book-length work of prose, poetry, or experi­mental form. The practice of writing is reinforced by studies in literature, cultural studies, science, and history.

There are so-called skill mills, and then there is Pratt Institute. We educate the whole person.

Pratt provides a well-rounded edu­cation in the liberal arts that encompasses humanities and media studies, mathematics and science, and social science and cultural studies. In addition, the Institute supports international students in gaining the English language skills they need to pursue their education and to interact as vital members of the community.

Classes in the Liberal Arts

Humanities and Media Studies The Humanities and Media Studies (HMS) Department offers a variety of courses—freshman English, literature and literary theory, communications, music, theater, film, per­form­ance and performance studies, foreign languages, and creative writing. What unites them, giving them continuity, is the department’s mission: to recognize and foster the relationship between visual and written texts; to instill in students critical thinking, reading, and writing skills that will inspire them in their professional lives for intellectual and creative growth; and to promote under­ standing and appreciation for the diverse cultures within the United States and throughout the world.

Mathematics and Science The mission of the Department of Mathematics and Science is threefold. The first goal is to acquaint students with scientific methodologies, critical thinking, and the history of scientific thought. The second is to address the interface between science and art, architecture, and design, whether it is through the physics of light, the chemistry of color, the biology of form, or the mathematics of symmetry. The third is to educate students so that they can respond intelligently and critically to today’s new developments in science and technology and make informed decisions regarding current scientific matters that affect public policy issues and ethics.

Social Science and Cultural Studies The Department of Social Science and Cultural Studies trains students to bring critical and analytical skills to bear on the social world and on their professional and artistic work. Through the perspectives of social science, history, philosophy, and cultural studies, students explore the cultural achievements of humankind and the social forces that have influenced the development of culture and human personality. A core curriculum develops understanding of historical relationships among world cultures, ideas, and institutions. Electives provide interdisciplinary approaches and intellectual diversity that foster critical examination of the political,

171

social, and economic forces at work in the processes of cultural production.

The department offers minors in cultural studies, philosophy, psychology, and sustainability.

UNDERGRADUATE LIBERAL ARTS REQUIREMENTS The General Education requirements consist of a core and post-core, each consisting of 5 classes or 15 credits for a total of 10 classes or 30 credits.

In the core, students will take HMS 101A and 201A. They will choose two Social Science classes from a menu of classes, one of which will focus on Global issues and the other on Ways of Knowing, Thinking, and Doing. Finally, for the core classes, students will choose one class from a menu of Math and Sciences. Four of these five core classes must be writing-intensive. For the post-core, students may choose to take a Liberal Arts and Science minor, or a selection of 5 classes that are thematically linked.

RESOURCES IN THE SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES Intensive English Program Pratt Institute and the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences welcome inter­national students and offer an array of programs and services to improve English-language skills and academic readiness. The Intensive English Program (IEP) provides academic English language instruction to matriculated graduate and under­graduate students.

In addition, two certificate programs run under the IEP’s umbrella: the full-time certificate (CEP) and summer (SCP) programs. The Intensive English Program also oversees the freshman English sequence for non-native Englishspeaking students, ENGL 100 and 102. These creditbearing courses fulfill the same requirements as the HMS 101 and 103 sequence.

The mission of all programs in the IEP is to support successful matriculation and progress toward graduation for international students by providing appropriate English language instruction. Internal assessment and advise­ment ensure students’ proper placement in English language courses, as well as successful matriculation and degree attainment.

Good communication skills are essential to academic success at Pratt Institute. Instruction in the IEP emphasizes language use for general academic and specific purposes in the professions in which Pratt specializes: art, design, architecture, and information and library science.

IEP faculty are trained and experienced in teaching English as a second language, as well as in integrating art and

Classes in the Liberal Arts

design content into their courses. Our classes are small (eight to 12 students per session), and enrolled inter­ national students benefit from their use of the Language Resource and Writing and Tutorial Centers for additional language learning practice.

All international students with TOEFL scores below 600 (PbT), 250 (CBT), or 100 (iBT)—including transfer students—whose first language is not English must demon­ strate proficiency in English by taking an English placement exam upon arriving at the Institute.

The English placement exam consists of a reading test, a writing test, and a personal interview with an IEP faculty member. Students assessed at the exempt level of English proficiency satisfy their Intensive English require­ ment and may enroll in all Institute courses without restriction. Students who are assessed as being in need of English instruction must register in consecutive Intensive English courses (including summer IEP classes should they wish to take other Institute courses during those sessions) until they achieve exempt status based on IEP exit proficiency criteria.

Students whose proficiency is assessed at or below Level 5 are required to enroll full-time in the Certificate of English Proficency (CEP) program. Any undergraduate international student who has been enrolled in three Intensive English courses without having exempted from (passed) the program will be moved to probationary status during his/her fourth semester.

If the undergraduate student fails to be exempt from the IEP at the end of the fourth semester of study, they will be advised of the reasons for being placed on IEP probation then offered the option of: (1) voluntary withdrawal from the Institute or, (2) full-time enrollment in the Summer Certificate Program (SCP), and/or Certificate of English Proficiency (CEP) program in order to meet the Institute English require­ment of exemption. After meeting the language requirement, affected students are eligible to return to full‑time degree study.

For information on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) requirements at Pratt, please refer to the catalog listing for particular schools and departments.

New inter­national students are strongly encouraged to enroll in our eight-week Summer Certifi­cate Program (SCP) in order to be fully prepared for the academic require­ ments of their degree programs.

The Certificate of English Proficiency Program The Certificate of English Proficiency (CEP) program at Pratt is a one‑year, English-language program located at our Brooklyn campus. Students whose TOEFL scores fall below the admission minimums established by the

172

STUDENT IN CLASS

Institute’s degree programs may apply to the CEP for full-time English-language instruction. At the end of the two-semester program of English study, those students completing CEP coursework receive a certificate of English language proficiency.

Courses focus on speaking, listening, reading, and writing within the context of art and design. For more information on Pratt’s Intensive and Certificate of English programs, contact IEP administrative offices at 718.636.3450, visit the IEP website at www.pratt.edu/iep, or email IEP at cep@pratt.edu.

Laboratories and Computer Facilities The science laboratories (chemistry, physics, biology), located in the Activities Resource Center, are inter­ disciplinary research facilities. Sophisticated instru­ments and equipment are available, and undergraduates are encouraged to use them under faculty supervision.

Computer facilities are available for use by all students of the Institute. Spe­cialized facilities are employed in the sciences.

Writing and Tutorial Center The Writing and Tutorial Center provides free tutoring for all Pratt students in English, math, physics, art history, thesis preparation, and other academic areas. Special assistance is provided for students for whom English is a second language. Small-group and regularly scheduled one-on-one conver­sation sessions are also offered.

The Writing and Tutorial Center staff consists of a director, faculty and staff tutors, and trained student peer tutors. The director coordinates scheduling and appointments in all areas. Any faculty member, staff member, or adviser may recommend students who need assistance.

The Writing and Tutorial Center is located in North Hall 101 (opposite the bank). Appointments can be made by phone, Skype IM, or in person.

Credit may be awarded for courses in which (1) a grade of C or better is earned from domestic institutions (or 70 or better from international institutions, as determined by a reputable education evaluation service) and (2) the course corresponds to the specific course requirements of the applicant’s proposed program of study. Courses with grades lower than C (including C-) or less than 70 are not transferable.

Students seeking transfer credits for studio courses in art, design, or architecture are required to submit a portfolio reflective of their studio coursework comp­ leted at their prior college as part of the admission application.

Prior to registration, the transfer student receives an estimate by the Office of Admissions of the credit that can be expected for work done at his or her previous college(s).

A maximum of six credits of language will be awarded.

Additional supporting documents may be requested by the Office of Admissions (bulletin, course hours, syllabi, etc.). The Pratt program is planned with the appropriate art and design academic adviser using the estimate as a guide for the required work to be completed.

After all final official transcripts have been received, a comp­lete evaluation of transfer credit will be sent to the student. (Transfer students in interior design are required to bring their portfolio to their academic adviser during registration.) Transfer credit is not included in the scholastic index. If less than 50 percent of a student’s credits are earned at Pratt, the student will not be considered for honors.

Mail all supplemental documents in order for the I-20 to be processed Pratt Institute Office of International Affairs 200 Willoughby Avenue Brooklyn, New York 11205 USA English Exam for Enrolling Students All international students must meet the Institute’s English requirement. The English exam determines if you meet Pratt Institute’s English requirement or if you will need Intensive English Program (IEP) courses to meet the requirement.

If your TOEFL score is 100 iBT (or 600 pBT or 250 cBT) or higher, or if English is your native language, then you will not need to take the exam because you meet the English requirement. There are other exceptions. To see the list of exceptions and to get more information about the test, please visit www.pratt.edu/iep. If your TOEFL score is less than 100 iBT (or 600 pBT or 250 cBT), you will be required to take Pratt’s in-house English exam before orientation. According to the test results, you either will be placed in an IEP class or will be considered “exempt” from IEP classes. Students either will take IEP courses until they exempt out (pass), or will be exempt after taking the test and will not need to take any IEP courses. Students who scored below 100 iBT (or 600 pBT or 250 cBT) on the TOEFL are strongly encouraged to enroll in the Summer Certificate Program (SCP) in English Proficiency. Please refer to www.pratt.edu/iep.

Note: Students participating in the SCP will request an I-20 for the SCP and the degree program at the same time (choose SCP + Degree); therefore, you must apply for the SCP before requesting the I-20 from Pratt. Pratt will issue the I-20 for SCP first. Pratt will issue the I-20 for the degree after you complete the SCP. Some programs do not permit students to enter in the spring; you may be required to take the full year of English for that reason.

The Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program Director Warren White heop@pratt.edu Pratt Institute is committed to providing access to higher education for all capable students. Pratt tries to ensure that no student is prevented from completing his or her degree due to a lack of funds. The Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP) provides an opportunity to offer admission and support to talented New York students who have not reached their full academic potential due to barriers in their educational, economic, or personal background. Applicants must be New York State residents who meet New York State’s Arthur O. Eve HEOP income guidelines.

The Arthur O. Eve HEOP students are Pratt students.

They attend the same classes, live in the same residence halls, participate in the same extracurricular activities, have access to the same resources, and pursue the same careers as other Pratt students. The Arthur O. Eve HEOP provides additional supportive services designed to assist students with academic, financial, social, and personal matters. This includes tutoring, counseling, and financial aid for students throughout their college careers.

The ultimate goal of the program is to make higher education possible for students who are inadmissible under regular admissions guidelines, but who have the potential and motivation for academic success.

Applicants who feel that they may be eligible for the Arthur O. Eve HEOP should contact the Office of Admis­ sions for further information and check off the Arthur O. Eve HEOP on the admissions application. The Arthur O. Eve HEOP office is located on the first floor of the Information Science Center (ISC), Room 104, and is open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Summer hours are 9 AM to 4 PM. The telephone number is 718.636.3524.

Financial Aid

Choosing a college should be based on the quality and reputation of the program rather than on finances.

We understand, however, that many families face concerns when choosing a highly regarded college such as Pratt.

We are committed to providing sufficient financial assist­ ance to make the costs more affordable for each family.

Our commitment is directly reflected by the large amount of gift money awarded each year. In fact, over 86 percent of our students receive some type of financial assistance.

Each family is also responsible for a contribution, which is determined in part by the family’s income, assets, benefits, and size. In addition, the student is expected to pursue scholar­ships, grants, and/or loans from private sources to help defray the cost of education.

Pratt offers various kinds of assistance, ranging from academic merit–based scholarships to need-based financial aid. Included in that list are tuition scholarships, grants, work-study employment, and loans. By combining federal, state, and institutional funds, we make every effort to assist students and their families in meeting the increasing cost of a college education. Through the collab­ orative benefits of alumni gifts, endowments by private industries, other endowments, and government agency programs, we are able to support our student body.

FRESHMEN AND OTHER ENTERING STUDENTS To be considered for financial assistance, freshmen and transfer students must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to the Department of Education Federal Student Aid Programs (www.fafsa.ed.gov or call 800.433.3243). The FAFSA application may be accessed through Pratt’s website (www.pratt.edu/ financing) or from secondary school guidance counselors.

Do not submit more than one application!

The FAFSA should be submitted no later than February 1.

A FAFSA filed after February 1 will delay the awarding of financial aid and may jeopardize the student’s eligibility for Pratt grants or scholarships.

Students are automatically considered for all types of financial aid after an admissions decision has been made and their FAFSA information has been received by Pratt.

If requested, and required by the federal government, other documents, such as federal tax returns, are due at the Office of Financial Aid by May 15.

After financial need has been established and adequate funds are available, an aid “package” will be granted.

It might consist of a combination of grants, scholarships, loans, and employment. Outside awards that might be forthcoming are taken into consideration when Institute aid is offered. It is the responsibility of the student and/or family to notify the Office of Financial Aid of any outside

201

awards. These outside awards may reduce or change the student’s original award package from the Institute.

Students do not need to write and request specific types of financial aid, since they will automatically be considered for any source of Pratt financial aid for which they qualify.

A student’s financial aid package may also include a Direct Stafford Loan and/or Parent Loan. New York State residents can apply for the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) by completing the FAFSA and returning the Express TAP Application to the New York State Higher Education Services Corporation.

Students who qualify for a Presidential Merit-Based Scholarship and also file a FAFSA and demonstrate need may receive institutional funds in addition to the merit-based scholarship awards. The awards are continued for four years (five for architecture) as long as the student remains enrolled full-time and maintains a cumulative GPA of 2.0 for any students who enrolled fall 2005 or earlier. Incoming freshmen and transfer students receiving a Presidential Merit-Based Scholarship after fall 2006 are subject to the following requirements.

2. Achieve a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.50 by the end of their first year of studies at Pratt.

Students failing to meet these requirements will have their Presidential Merit-Based Scholarship automatically withdrawn for the remainder of their studies at Pratt.

There is no application for the merit-based scholarships awarded to incoming students, and all accepted applicants are considered automatically. To qualify for merit-based scholarships, you are not required to submit a FAFSA. These scholarships are based on your portfolio (if required by your major), your high school or college GPA, and test scores (SAT, ACT, TOEFL, or IELTS) to some extent.

The scholarships range from $9,000 to $21,000 each year for four years (five for architecture). The criteria for renewal are identical to the criteria for the Presidential Merit-Based Scholarships.

FEDERAL PROGRAMS 2017–2018 Federal Pell Grants How do I apply?

Application materials are available at the Office of Student Financial Services at Pratt Institute. Students may apply for the Federal Pell Grant program by filing the FAFSA. Comp­ leted applications should be submitted for processing according to the application instructions. Based on the Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR), the amount of the applicant’s award is determined by Pratt’s Office of Student Financial Services. On the first day of class, funds will be credited to a new student’s institutional account according to federal regulations.

Selection of Recipients Who is eligible?

The applicant must be enrolled as an undergraduate student working on a first degree and must show eligibility as determined by FAFSA. Financial need is determined by a formula applied to all applicants. The family contribution is calculated using this formula, which was developed by Congress and is reviewed periodically. Federal Pell Grant awards are available only until completion of the first baccalaureate degree.

Effective the 2012–2013 academic year, the duration of a student’s eligibility to receive a Federal Pell Grant has been reduced from 18 semesters to 12 semesters.

Semesters are counted based on full-time semester enrollment and half-time enrollment is counted as half of a semester toward the 12-semester limit. This change in the duration of students’ Federal Pell Grant eligibility is not limited only to students who received their first Federal Pell Grant on or after July 1, 2008 as previously provided when the duration of eligibility was 18 semesters.

Selection of Recipients and Allocation of Awards Pratt makes employment reasonably available to all eligible students who are in need of financial aid. In the event that more students are eligible for FCWS than there are funds available, preference is given to students who have greater financial need and who must earn a part of their educational expenses.

Award Schedule Pratt arranges jobs on or off campus, up to 20 hours per week. Factors considered by the Office of Financial Aid in determining eligibility under this program are financial need, class schedule, academic progress, and specific skills. Level of salary must be at least the minimum wage; maximum wage is dependent on the nature of the job and the applicant’s qualifications.

Rights and Responsibilities of Recipients Satisfactory academic progress must be maintained.

Financial Aid

Financial Assistance Standards Pratt applies New York State minimum academic standards to all students receiving Pratt aid, state and federal aid, and loans insured or guaranteed by the federal government.

Review Policies The Office of Student Financial Services will periodically review the GPA and number of credits earned by each financial aid recipient using his or her academic transcript.

Credits earned includes only those for courses with grades of A through D. A student not meeting these standards will be placed on financial aid probation for one semester. After the grades for the probation semester are calculated, the student’s transcript will be reviewed. If the student still fails to meet the standards, all of his or her financial aid will be revoked beginning with the semester following the probation semester. Once the student meets the minimum standards, he or she may reapply for financial aid. It is the student’s responsibility to advise the Office of Student Financial Services if he or she has had grade changes that bring the cumulative GPA back up to the minimum standard.

A student who does not meet the requirements for TAP may apply for a waiver. A waiver may be granted only once on the undergraduate level and once on the graduate level. A waiver may be granted only after the student has met with the Executive Director of Student Financial Services and Compliance and the TAP Certification Officer.

To receive a waiver, the student must be able to provide documentation of unusual circumstances that have affected his or her academic progress. Further information regarding the certification for New York State aid can be obtained by contacting a Pratt financial aid counselor.

What is Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)?

Federal regulations require that Pratt Institute monitor the qualitative or quantitative standards of academic progress for students who apply for and/or receive federal financial aid. To remain eligible for financial aid at Pratt, recipients are required to show Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) toward a degree according to the guidelines listed in the Satisfactory Academic Progress Chart (see Registration and Academic Policies section).

Texas Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board 1200 E. Anderson Lane Austin, TX 78752 800.242.3062 Federal regulations require the Office of Student Financial Services to monitor the pro­gress of each student (receiving financial aid) toward degree completion on two measures (1) Qualitative (cumulative Grade Point Average) and (2) Quantitative (completion of credits required). Students who fall behind in their coursework or fail to achieve minimum standards for qualitative and quantitative measures may lose their eligibility for all types of federal and state aid and institutional aid administered.

Qualitative Measure: Each student receiving financial aid is expected to successfully complete all of his/her classes with good grades to continue receiving financial aid payments.

A student must maintain at least the minimum cumulative GPA for his/her particular degree of study to be consist­ ent with the requirements for graduation.

Quantitative Measure: In order to maintain financial aid eligibility, the maximum number of attempted credits for completion of a degree is 150 percent of the required credits for that particular degree. Pratt will review each student’s eligibility at the end of each year. If the student has exceeded the maximum number of attempted credits for his/her degree program, he/she will no longer be eligible for financial aid (grants or loans) during any future semesters. ll The maximum number of “attempted credits” for completion of a four-year Undergraduate Degree (excluding writing degree) is 201 credits. ll The maximum number of “attempted credits” for completion of a Writing four-year Under­graduate Degree ONLY is 195 credits. ll The maximum number of “attempted credits” for completion of a five-year Undergraduate Degree is 263 credits. ll The maximum number of “attempted credits” for

Financial Aid

What are Qualitative or Quantitative Standards?

Qualitative Measure: Each student receiving financial aid is expected to successfully complete all of his/her classes with good grades to continue receiving financial aid payments.

Quantitative Measure: In order to maintain financial aid eligibility, the maximum number of attempted credits and length of time for completion of a particular degree is 150 percent.

How does SAP work?

The Office of Student Financial Services determines this eligibility after the submission of spring semester grades (once a year). Undergraduate and graduate students who do not meet the minimum requirements for continuance on federal aid according to this policy will be notified of their status by the Office of Student Financial Services during the month of June.

What are the statuses if a student fails to meet the SAP requirements for Financial Aid? Probation–A student will receive this flag the first time he/she fails to meet the minimum requirements for Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP), and will remain eligible for financial aid with this status during the next semester of enrollment. At the end of the proba­tionary semester, he/she is expected to meet the SAP requirements to remain eligible for financial aid in future semesters.

Unsatisfactory–A student will receive this flag if the SAP requirements are not met after one semester of probation, making him/her ineligible for financial aid.

Please note that a student must meet all SAP criteria (GPA, completed credits, and maximum time frame) to regain eligibility for aid once he/she is flagged as unsatisfactory.

209

How can a student regain financial aid eligibility after failing to meet SAP requirements?

Students who fail to meet the qualitative and/or quantitative standards outlined in the Satisfactory Academic Progress Chart can: ll Enroll in a summer session, in order to complete the necessary credits and/or improve the GPA needed to meet the SAP requirements.

Liability is computed from the date the form is signed by the registrar staff. Withdrawals may not be made by telephone. Check registration schedules and the Institute’s calendar for exact liability deadline dates each semester. Withdrawal from

224

courses does not automatically cancel housing or meal plans.

Refunds for withdrawn courses are not automatic and must be requested from the Office of the Bursar.

REFUNDS ON CREDIT BALANCES A credit balance on a student’s account after applying Title IV funds (Federal Student Aid Funds) will be automatically refunded, and a refund will be mailed or applied to the debit card within 14 days of the later of any of the following dates: (1) the date the credit balance occurs; (2) the first day of classes of a payment period of enrollment; or (3) the date the student rescinds his or her authorization to apply Title IV funds to other charges or for the institution to hold excess funds.

BANKING FACILITIES Arrangements have been made with a bank on campus for students to open accounts, making it possible to cash personal checks with the Pratt ID (providing the student’s available bank account balance covers the amount of the check to be cashed) and a primary ID (state-issued or passport). An ATM is also available on campus.

BILLING A “billing” address may be established, changed, or deleted at any time by writing to or visiting the Office of the Registrar. Due dates cannot be extended because bills have not been received.

COLLECTION ACCOUNTS The student will be responsible for all collection costs associated with delinquent accounts forwarded to an outside collection agency because of nonpayment.

ADJUSTMENTS We strongly recommend that you view your bill online periodically. In addition we recommend giving parents or any third party payer access to the Parent Module so they can view/pay your bill online. If a student contests a portion of the bill, he or she should pay the uncontested portion by the due date and immediately contact the appropriate office to request an adjustment. Adjustments should be pursued and resolved immediately to avoid a hold on registration or grades.

STAFFORD, PLUS DIRECT LOANS Loan funds are sent to Pratt by the federal government electronically (EFT). Funds will be disbursed in accordance with federal regulations, and a signature may be required.

ALTERNATIVE LOAN CHECKS In some instances, lenders disburse Alternative Loans in paper check form which may require a signature. Loan checks are made payable jointly to Pratt Institute and the student. Payees must endorse the checks before they can

225

be applied to the student’s account. The student will be held responsible for the loan portion of the balance on his or her account whether or not he or she receives the loan.

It is the student’s responsibility to contact the federal government when delays occur. A student whose Institute bills are overdue will not be allowed to register in the Institute, receive grades, transcripts, or diploma, or have enrollment or degrees confirmed until financial obligations are paid in full.

PLUS loan checks are sent to the parent directly unless a parent gives written consent to have any PLUS loan excess returned to the student.

Pratt online accounts must be used for all official Institute communication through the Internet as an individual’s Pratt email address is the only way to validate the authenticity of the requester. No official requests will be fulfilled from any email address that does not end with a pratt.edu suffix. Likewise, all official Institute communications sent electronically are emailed to this address. Some notices are only sent electronically.

semester. Contact the Office of Student Involvement for published schedules.

Continuing Student Registration Continuing students are assigned a registration date based on their degree progress. Official registration dates can be found in the Academic Calendar or in the Academic Guide for Students (emailed to all students each fall).

To avoid late fees, all registered students who plan to continue in subsequent semesters are required to register during the open registration period. This regis­tration period closes at the end of the previous semester. Failure to register during the open registration period and make payment in advance may result in late fees. Late registrations will also severely jeopardize a student’s chances of obtaining his or her preferred academic course schedule.

Late Registration Late registration periods are subject to a late fee. The amounts and timing of these fees are described in the Tuition and Fees section of this bulletin and the academic calendar. Registration or reinstatement after the published add period requires a written appeal to the Office of the Registrar.

Admission to Class It is the responsibility of each student to obtain an official schedule (printout of registered course, section, credit, and time) on myPratt after completion of the registration process. Students are strongly cautioned to review and confirm all data. If any course/section/credit correction is necessary, the student can make adviser-approved changes on myPratt through the first two weeks of classes (drop/add period) only. Students may also alter their schedule with the assistance of their department or with a Drop/Add form available in academic offices or the Office of the Registrar.

STUDENT REGISTRATION New Student Initial Registration Entering new students may be required to go online and choose courses during the new student registration time period. The Registrar’s Office will provide detailed registration instruction materials for entering new students. Some departments provide advisement in a group setting; others complete advisement by phone or email. Contact advisers for further information.

Payment of tuition and fees must be completed before August 1 to avoid a late fee.

All new students are required to participate in the orientation program before the start of their initial

VETERANS AFFAIRS Pratt Institute participates in the following Veterans Administration Benefits: ll Chapter 33 Post 9/11 GI Bill ll Chapter 30 Montgomery GI Bill (MGIB) ll Chapter 1606 Montgomery GI Bill (MGIB-SR) ll Chapter 31 Veterans Vocational Rehabilitation Because the New York Regional Veterans Administration (VA) will not accept certification of enrollment before the first class day of any session, students planning to enroll under any of the VA programs should initiate the certification procedure by making an appointment to see

228

the veterans’ adviser in the Office of the Registrar after registration is completed. Depending on the Chapter, students receive monthly checks from the VA or the VA will send the check directly to Pratt six to eight weeks after certification. Failure to request certification upon completion of registration may result in a four- to six-week delay in the receipt of the first benefit check. As of January 1976, those students receiving survivor’s benefits (children of deceased veterans) are no longer required to be certified by the school. Appropriate forms may be obtained at the student’s VA Regional Office. New transfer students who have already received educational benefits should bring their VA claim number to the veterans’ adviser.

New students who have been in active military service must submit a certified copy of their DD 214 (discharge papers). Students in Active Reserve should be certified by their commanding officer, and the signature of the Pratt veterans’ adviser should be obtained from the Registrar’s Office. Students who support spouses, children, or parents should submit birth certificates or marriage cert­ifi­cates as appropriate. Students in the Reserve (Chapter 1606) seeking to obtain educational benefits should see their commanding officer for eligibility counseling and forms and, if eligible, should then see the Pratt veterans’ adviser for certification. All students receiving benefits under Veterans’ Vocational Rehabilitation (Chapter 31) should contact their counselors at the VA, who will forward an “authorization form” to Pratt’s veterans’ adviser. These veterans should then go to the Registrar’s Office after having been programmed by their respective departments in order to present a signed copy of the authorization to the Office of Student Financial Services. Only after receiving this signed authorization will the Office of Student Financial Services validate tuition payment. Veterans receiving an allocation for books should note that Pratt Institute does not maintain the campus bookstore. The VA should be notified accordingly. Final and official author­ization cannot be forwarded to the VA until the student has completed registration. Pratt Institute serves only as a source of certification and information to the VA Regional Office. The student must carry out all financial transactions with the VA directly. All transactions are carried out with the Buffalo Office: P.O. Box 4616 Buffalo, NY 14240 The New York Regional Office is at: 245 W. Houston Street (at Varick Street) New York, NY 10014

Registration and Academic Policies

Residency Requirement Students must complete at least 48 semester credits at Pratt. The last 32 credits must be taken in final sequence to earn any undergraduate degree. To be considered for graduation honors, a student must have completed a minimum of 50 percent of the credits required to complete the degree at Pratt.

TRANSFER CREDITS Transfer Credit Prior to Matriculation Transfer credit is granted for courses that are appropriate to the program curriculum at Pratt. Only a grade of C or better from a school accredited by an accrediting agency or state approval agency recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education or the international equivalent, and only a numeric evaluation of 70 or better from international institutions, will be considered accep­table for transfer to the Pratt record. Grades of lower than C (including C-) or less than 70 are not acceptable for transfer credit evaluation. Institutions accredited by the New York State Board of Regents will be individually evaluated, and credits will be awarded according to articulation agreements.

Credits may be awarded for courses in which (1) a grade of C or better is earned from domestic institutions (or 70 or better from international institutions as determined by an official international credit evaluation service) and (2) the courses correspond to the specific course require­ ments of the applicant’s program of study. Grades lower than C (including C-) or less than 70 are not transferable.

Grades of transfer credit are not included in the GPA. A maximum of six credits in foreign language will be accepted. Students seeking transfer credits for studio courses in art, design, or architecture are required to submit a portfolio reflective of their studio course­ work completed in a prior institution as part of the admission application.

International students may be required to submit additional class hour documentation to determine a U.S. semester hour equivalency or have their credentials of international credit hours evaluated by an official inter­ national credit evaluations service. Pratt accepts international credit evaluation from any member of the National Association of Credit Evaluation Services (NACES).

Pratt accepts up to nine credits for Advanced Place­ ment (AP) with a score of four or five and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Higher Level with a score of five or greater (details are presented in the Admissions Section).

Credit may also be awarded for College Level Equivalency Program (CLEP) tests with acceptable scores. Only tests taken prior to matriculation at Pratt will be considered.

229

Credit evaluations will be comple­ted only after accept­ ance. Students petitioning for transfer credit(s) must submit to the Admissions Office an official transcript from each college attended prior to enrollment. Additional transcripts will not be accepted for transfer credit evalu­ ation after the beginning of the student’s first semester at Pratt. Accepted students who seek AP, IB, or CLEP credit must submit official copies of score reports to the Admissions Office prior to enrollment.

Prior to registration, the transfer student receives an estimate by the Office of Admissions of the credit that can be expected for work done at previous college(s). Additional documents may be requested by the Office of Admissions (bulletin, course hours, syllabi, etc.) in order to complete the estimated evaluation. Deposited students should mail all education records to the Office of the Registrar. After all final transcripts have been received, a complete evaluation of transfer credit will be sent to the student.

Transfer Credit after Matriculation Every student, once matriculated at Pratt, whether as a freshman or a transfer student, is expected to complete his or her degree requirements at Pratt, both in major areas and in liberal arts and sciences. A student who is in good academic standing may request to take a course at another college. These students must get permission in advance to take courses at other colleges for transfer to their Pratt record. Credit for courses taken at another institution while matriculated at Pratt is limited to a maximum of three credits for associate degree students and six credits for baccalau­ reate students, only three credits of which can be transfer­ red as studio and three as liberal arts and sciences. Transfer credit is given only for the credit-bearing course at the other institution and must be passed with a grade of C or higher.

A grade of C- is not acceptable for transfer purposes. Grades of transfer credits are not included in the GPA. The student must first secure written approval on the permission form available in the Office of the Registrar to take courses at another college. Permission for major course credit must be approved by the dean of the student’s school, and permission for liberal arts credit must be approved only by the Dean of the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The approved permission must be signed for clearance and filed in the Office of the Registrar before the course is taken. Upon completion, an official transcript must be sent to the Registrar’s Office for the credit to be transferred.

PORTFOLIO/WORK EXPERIENCE CREDIT Based on previous work experience and/or portfolio, credit may be granted for undergraduate professional

Registration and Academic Policies

courses in the School of Architecture, School of Art, and School of Design. When applying for admission, the student should indicate his or her intention to seek credits for work experience. Students must submit the following documentation for credit consideration: ll Résumé ll Professional portfolio ll Letters from employers detailing responsibilities and areas of expertise To apply for portfolio/work experience credit, the following steps must be followed.

How to Petition ll Petition in person at the office of the appropriate chair.

You will be advised as to the feasibility of your request and given a Statement of Intent to be completed.

You should keep a copy of the document and be sure another is in your permanent file. ll Present a copy of the Statement of Intent to the Registrar’s Office with a $100 deposit. The Office of the Registrar will give you an application form, which should be returned to that office after completion. When the entire process is complete, the Registrar’s Office will apply the deposit to a fee schedule of 30 percent of the regular per-credit tuition rate per credit evaluated. ll Submit documentation as described above to appropriate departmental chair. Please allow one week for evaluation. ll Return the application with the proper authorization to the Office of the Registrar to complete the process.

You will be billed accordingly. Payment is due upon billing. A maximum of 32 credits can be evaluated for those programs requiring fewer than 150 credits for graduation and up to 42 credits for those programs requiring more than 150 credits for graduation. Credits earned through this procedure are not included in the GPA. They will not count toward the Institute’s minimum residency requirement.

STUDENT STATUS Full-Time Undergraduate To be classified as a full-time student, undergraduate students must enroll for 12 or more semester credits (or an equivalent combination of credits and activities recognized as applicable). Students registered for Intensive English are considered registered in activities equivalent to two credits for each section.

230

Part-Time Undergraduate Undergraduate students are classified as part-time if they schedule or drop to fewer than 12 credits (or equivalent, see above) of registered coursework.

information as well as the name and address of the company or person that is to receive the verification letter.

Attendance Policy Faculty members are encouraged to take attendance.

There are no excused absences or cuts. Students are expected to attend all classes. Any absences may affect the final grade. Three absences may result in course failure at the discretion of the instructor.

Program/Major Changes Each student must follow the program and major for which she or he has been admitted to Pratt. The Institute will not recognize a change of major as official unless the change is processed with the appropriate approvals and recorded in the student information system. A student who wants to change a major must first speak with his or her academic adviser. Course requirements for the new major reflect the current catalog year. Hence, a change in major may result in more credits being required to graduate. It may also have an effect on the number of transfer credits allowed.

ENROLLMENT VERIFICATION LETTERS Students can generate a watermarked PDF record of their periods of enrollment and current status at Pratt Institute online through the National Student Clearinghouse. This service can be accessed at any time through www.pratt.edu/myPratt: 1. Log in with your oneKey at www.pratt.edu/myPratt; 2. Click on “Academic Tools” on the left side of the page.

Click on “log in” under “Verifications and Transcripts.”

Through the Self-Service menu, a student may also: ll Obtain a Good Student Discount Certificate. ll View the enrollment information on file with the National Student Clearinghouse. (Enrollment information is provided to the National Student Clearinghouse by many post-secondary institutions.

Enrollment in those schools is included.) ll View the student loan deferment notifications that the Clearinghouse has provided to your loan holders (lenders and guarantors). ll View the proof(s) of enrollment that the Clearinghouse has provided to your health insurers and other providers of student services or products. ll Order or track a transcript. ll View specific information about your student loans.

A student may request an enrollment verification letter on Pratt Institute letterhead several ways: ll Through the Academic Tools student menu (under My Courses). ll A written request including ID number and mailing/fax destination from a student’s Pratt email account. ll In person at the Registrar’s Office with a Pratt ID. ll A written request by fax with copy of student ID and signature.

In all cases where the student is not the direct recipient, the student must provide written permission to release the

CHANGES AND WITHDRAWALS

Applying for a Change of Major (Same School) If the departments are in the same school, a Change of Major form (available in the Registrar’s Office) needs to be completed and signed by the student and the chairs of both the current and new department.

A. Meet with an academic adviser to review the effect the change of major will have. Be sure to print out a degree audit for the new major before the meeting to see the difference in the requirements.

B. Pick up an application for a change of major in the Office of the Registrar; complete and sign the form.

C. Turn in the completed form, with required signatures, to the Registrar’s Office.

Applying for a Change of Major (Different Schools) If the departments are in different schools, students must apply for this change in the Admissions Office (for example, School of Architecture to School of Art or School of Design).

Course/Section Changes The Institute recognizes no change of course(s) or section(s) as official unless the change is processed online through Academic Tools or with a Drop/Add form submitted with the appropriate approvals to the Registrar’s Office. Courses and course sections may be changed online during the first two weeks of each semester. Once this add period is over, no courses may be added to the student’s schedule.

Students paying by the credit who drop a course on or after the first day of the term will be charged a percentage of the course fee. (See refund period schedule below.)

It is the responsibility of the student to officially with­­ draw from any registered course or section. This decision must be completed online through Academic Tools or by

231

filing a properly completed Drop/Add form with the Regist­rar’s Office. Failure to attend classes, to notify the instructor, or to make or complete tuition payment does not constitute an official withdrawal. A student who does not officially withdraw from a registered course will receive a Withdrawal Failing (WF) for nonattendance. Students who stop attending a course without having officially dropped the course during the published refund period will not be eligible for a retroactive refund.

Students may withdraw from a course during the first 11 weeks of the fall or spring semesters. A class that is dropped from a student’s schedule after the second week of the semester will remain on the student’s academic record with the non-credited designation of WD (withdrawal).

No course withdrawal will be accepted after the published deadline. WD grades earned via the official with­drawal procedure cannot be changed.

Complete Withdrawal from the Institute Students who are leaving Pratt without graduating are required to fill out a Complete Withdrawal form in the Registrar’s Office. This form permits the Registrar to drop or withdraw a student from all registered classes (a student cannot do this online). The form also serves to advise relevant offices that a student is no longer enrolled. Students who withdraw need to be advised about any financial obligations and any academic repercussions of their actions. They also will be required to complete and exit interview.

The date that the Complete Withdrawal form is turned into the Registrar’s Office is the official date used for

Registration and Academic Policies

withdrawal. This date determines eligibility for WD grades and a student’s charges for the term of withdrawal. Only the submission of a Complete Withdrawal form will deactivate your status as a currently enrolled student. Until that time, regi­stration and billing stay in effect and grades of WF will be issued for class absences.

None of the following actions causes an official withdrawal or reduces financial liability for a semester: ll Notifying a faculty member, department chair, or academic adviser. ll Failure to pay the student account. ll Failure to attend classes.

The Complete Withdrawal form must be signed by the student, their department chair or academic adviser, Student Financial Services representative, and the Director of Residential Life (if the student is living in a residence hall).

International students must also obtain the signature of the Office of International Affairs. Students who are not enrolled during either the fall or the spring semester and have not completed a Complete Withdrawal or Leave of Absence form will be officially withdrawn from the Institute and will need to apply for readmission.

LEAVE OF ABSENCE A student in good academic and financial standing may request a leave of absence for not more than two consecu­ tive semesters (excluding summer sessions). Students must apply with a Leave of Absence Request form in the Office of the Registrar. ll Students must apply for a leave of absence on or before the last day to withdraw from classes for any given semester. ll Only students in good academic and financial standing will be approved. ll A leave of absence will not be granted once a student’s thesis is in progress. ll International students must obtain authorization from the Office of International Affairs. ll Students applying for a leave of absence must pay a $20 processing fee. ll A student who wishes to register after an undocumented leave must apply for readmission. ll Students requesting leave for medical reasons must obtain authorization from Health and Counseling.

Readmission Students who do not attend Pratt for a semester or more without receiving an official leave of absence must apply for readmission. Applications for readmission are available from the Registrar’s Office. Those applying

232

for readmission must submit a $55 application fee payable to Pratt Institute.

Degree requirements are updated to reflect the current catalog when a student is readmitted to a program (rather than the one used in the initial acceptance).

The readmission application deadlines for each semester are below.

Application Deadlines Fall—August 15 Spring—December 15 Summer—May 1 PERSONAL DATA CHANGES All personal data changes must be made in written form only by the student. Students are responsible for report­ ing the following personal data changes to the Office of the Registrar: ll Change of name (requires legal documentation) ll Change of address ll Change of major Note: Consult the Office of the Registrar for procedural details on reporting these changes.

PREFERRED NAME Pratt Institute recognizes that many members of the Pratt community prefer to use names other than their legal ones to identify themselves. As long as the use of this preferred name is not for the purposes of misrepresentation, the Institute acknowledges that a “preferred name” can and should be used where possible in the course of Institute business and education.

Therefore, beginning the fall semester of 2016-17, any member of the Pratt Community may choose to identify a preferred name in addition to their legal name.

The preferred name will be used in all Institute business, except where the use of the legal name is required.

For example, some records, such as paychecks and trans­ cripts, require use of a legal name; in such circumstances, the Institute will not be able to use the preferred name.

However, whenever reasonably possible, “preferred name” will be used.

Inappropriate use of the preferred name, including but not limited to misrepresentation or attempting to avoid a legal obligation, may be cause for denying the request.

PARENT MODULE Students can authorize parents, guardians, or sponsors to view current schedules, grades, degree progress and/or access the tuition bill to see the current balance and

Registration and Academic Policies

make payments. Students manage (grant or rescind) these permissions through their Academic Tools. Parents and sponsors can then access the system and log in at parents. pratt.edu. To access the module: 1. Log in with your oneKey at www.pratt.edu/myPratt; 2. Click on “Academic Tools” on the left side of the page, and click “log in”; 3. After the system logs you in, click on the “Students” menu on the sidebar; 4. Through “Grant Parent/Sponsor Rights” (listed under “My Personal Information”), students decide which information they allow each account to see or even rescind previously given access. Students can request to add people not listed on this screen by returning to the Students menu and clicking “Request New Parent/Sponsor” (under “My Personal Information”). If a person is missing an email address or other important information, a request to update his or her account can be made through the same process.

TRANSCRIPT GENERAL POLICIES ll The Registrar’s Office must have the student’s written request or authorization to issue a transcript.

Parents cannot authorize the Registrar’s Office to mail a transcript. ll Official transcripts bear the Institute’s seal and registrar’s signature. ll Partial transcripts are not issued. A transcript is a complete record of all work completed at Pratt. ll Allow five (5) business days after receipt of the transcript request for the transcript to be mailed.

At certain peak times, such as registration and commencement, the processing time may be longer. ll Transcripts are not released until a student’s account has been paid in full. ll Copies of transcripts from other schools that were attended must be requested directly from those schools. The Registrar’s Office cannot release or copy transcripts in a student’s file.

TRANSCRIPTS Unofficial Transcripts Currently enrolled students can view and print an unofficial transcript through Student Planning.

Official Transcripts Official transcripts may be ordered in three ways: online, by mail or in person. (NOTE: Records containing financial holds will not be processed until the hold is cleared.)

233

All transcript requests must have the following information to be processed: ll Name while attending Pratt Institute ll 9-digit social security number or 7-digit Pratt ID number ll Date of birth ll Telephone number ll Dates of attendance and/or graduation date ll Destination information where transcript is to be mailed Online The easiest and most affordable way for students and alumni to order an official Pratt transcript is through the National Student Clearinghouse. This requires a valid credit/debit card to place your order. Regular service (three to five business days) is $7.25 per copy. Expedited services are available for an additional cost. You can upload additional forms to accompany your transcript if needed.

By Mail Official transcripts may be ordered by mail by completing a Transcript Request form available on our website. Delivery and pricing information is available on the request form. Send your request form with a check or money order (no cash) to: Pratt Institute Office of the Registrar 200 Willoughby Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11205 In Person Official transcripts may also be ordered in person at the Office of the Registrar, Myrtle Hall, 6th Floor, during registrar window hours. We can only accept cash or checks.

(A credit card payment can be charged at the financial services window adjacent to the registrar’s window.)

Requests for immediate processing and pick up are $15 per copy. Requests to send official transcripts by regular mail service (leaves Pratt in three to five business days) are $10 per copy.

TRANSCRIPT NOTATION FOR VIOLENT OFFENSES —TRANSCRIPT NOTATION PROCESS As required by New York State Legislation Article 129-B, effective October 5, 2015, Pratt Institute will denote conduct outcomes on academic transcripts of students found in violation of any policy violation that is deemed a violent offense as defined by CLERY reportable crimes.

Transcript notations are applied at the conclusion of the conduct proceedings and appeals processes. The following are examples of language that may appear on an academic transcript:

Registration and Academic Policies

ll “Expelled after a finding of responsibility for a code of conduct violation” ll “Suspended after a finding of responsibility for a code of conduct violation” ll “Withdrew with conduct charges pending” Transcript notations for a student suspended or who chooses to withdraw pending conduct investigation will remain on a transcript for a minimum of one year.

After one year’s time, a student may request to have the transcript notation removed by filing an appeal with the Vice President for Student Affairs. If an appeal is not filed, the notation will be removed after seven years.

TRANSCRIPT NOTATION APPEALS PROCESS To file an appeal to have the transcript notation removed from an academic transcript, a student must submit in writing to the Vice President for Student Affairs the following: ll A statement describing the incident and what was learned over the time away from the institution. ll Documentation of successful completion of an in/out patient program or therapy to address the conduct. ll Students who withdrew from the Institute prior to resolution of the conduct process will need to fulfill the sanctions found in absentia before being permitted to appeal. ll Transcript notations for students expelled are permanent and cannot be appealed.

WITHDRAWAL PRIOR TO CONDUCT CASE ADJUDICATION A student who withdraws from the Institute prior to an outcome of a pending conduct case should understand that the investigation will continue without their participation. A student can still be found responsible in their absence. Withdrawal from the Institute will not protect a student from possible criminal or civil action(s).

ORGANIZATION OF COURSE OFFERINGS Courses Numbered 100 through 499 are primarily reserved for under­graduates. Graduate students will not receive credit toward graduation for taking these courses.

Courses Numbered 500 through 599 may be open to both undergraduates with junior or senior class standing and graduate students. Courses in this range are consider­ ed either 1) Technical Elective; 2) Qualifying; or 3) Graduate courses whose content complements advanced under­ graduate studies. Credit earned within the 500-numbered courses by undergraduate students may not be applied toward a graduate degree. Graduate students enrolled

234

in 500-level courses are expected to perform with greater productivity and capacity for research and analysis than their undergraduate colleagues enrolled in the same courses. Significantly more is expected of graduate students in course projects, papers, and conferences.

Courses Numbered 600 and above are generally for graduate students only. A graduate course embraces highly developed content that demands advanced qualitative and quantitative per­formance and specialization not normally appropriate to undergraduate courses.

Courses Numbered 9000 and above are elective internship courses.

SEMESTER HOUR CREDIT In accordance with federal regulations, a credit/semester hour is the amount of work represented in intended learning outcomes and verified by evidence of student achievement. Pratt Institute operates on a semester calendar and awards credit on a semester basis. Each semester is a minimum of 15 weeks. One credit is awarded for at least three hours of student work per week, or the equivalent amount of work over a different amount of time.

Student work may take the form of classroom time, other direct faculty instruction, or out-of-class homework, assignments, or other student work. A minimum of one clock hour per week, or equivalent time in variable-length courses, represents classroom or direct instruction time.

To determine the appropriate amount of classroom time required for each course, Pratt follows the standards established by its accrediting agencies. Typically, for each credit hour awarded to lecture or seminar courses, the students receive 15 clock hours of direct instruction and are required to perform an additional 30 hours of out-of-class work. For each credit awarded to a studio course, undergraduate students typically receive 22.5 clock hours, and graduate students receive 15 hours of direct instruction and are required to complete a minimum of 30 additional hours of out-of-class work.

GRADING SYSTEM Letter Grades That Affect the Academic Index A, A– excellent The student has consistently demonstrated outstanding ability in the comprehension and interpretation of the content of the course. (Numerical Value: A = 4.0; A– = 3.7) B+, B, B– above average The student has acquired a comprehensive knowledge of the content of the course. (Numerical Value: B+ = 3.3; B = 3.0; B– = 2.7)

Registration and Academic Policies

C+, C, C- acceptable The student has shown satisfactory understanding of the content of the course. (Numerical Value: C+ = 2.3; C = 2.0; C- = 1.7) D+, D less than acceptable The student lacks satisfactory understanding of course content in some important respects. (Numerical Value: D+ = 1.3; D = 1) F failure The student has failed to meet the minimum standards for the course. (Numerical Value: F= 0) WF (Withdrawal Failure) Grade given to a student with a failing grade due to lack of attendance.

Note: The highest grade acceptable for recording is A (4.0) and not A+; D (1.0), not D–, is the only grade preceding F (0.0). The +/– grading system went into effect as of the fall 1989 semester and is not acceptable for recording purposes for prior semesters.

Grades That Do Not Affect the Academic Index AUD (Audit, no credit) Students must register for courses they plan to audit by contacting the Registrar’s Office in person or by way of their Pratt email account.

CR (Credit) Grade indicates that the student’s achievement was satisfactory to assure proficiency in subsequent courses in the same or related areas. The CR grade does not affect the student’s academic index. The CR grade is to be assigned to all appropriately documented transfer credits.

The CR grade is applied to credit earned at Pratt only if: ll The student is enrolled in any course offered by a school other than the one in which the student is matriculated, and had requested from the professor at the start of the term a CR/NCR option as a final grade for that term. ll The instructor has received approval to award CR grades from the Office of the Provost. (This does not apply to liberal arts courses within the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences.)

IP (In Progress) Designation used only for graduate student thesis, thesis project for which satisfactory completion is pending, or Intensive English course for which satisfactory competence level is pending.

235

INC (Incomplete) Designation given by the instructor at the written request of the student and available only if the student has been in regular attendance, to indicate the student has satisfied all but the final requirements of the course, and has furnished satisfactory proof that the work was not comp­ leted because of illness or other circumstances beyond his or her control. The student must understand the terms necessary to fulfill the requirements of the course and the date by which work must be submitted. If the work is not submitted by the understood date of submission, the incomplete will be converted to a failure. If unresolved at the end of the following semester, the grade is changed to failure with a numerical grade value of 0.

NCR (No Credit) Indicates that the student has not demonstrated proficiency. (See CR for conditions of use.)

NG (No Grade Reported) Indicates that the student was properly registered for the course but the faculty member issued no grade. The student should contact the professor. Students cannot graduate with an NG on their record.

NR (No Record) Grade given for no record of attendance in an enrolled course. (All NR desig­nations must be resolved by the end of the following term or the grade is changed to a letter grade of F with a numerical value of 0.)

WD (Withdrawal from a registered class) Indicates that the student was permitted to withdraw from a course in which he or she was officially enrolled during the drop period for that semester.

Grade Reports Grade reports are not mailed to students. Grades may be obtained via www.pratt.edu/myPratt (see instructions below). Professors submit final grades online and students are able to view their grades as soon as the in­ structor enters them. If there are any questions about the grade received, a student should contact the instructor immediately. Only the instructor can change a grade by properly completing, signing, and submitting a Change of Grade form directly to the Office of the Registrar. Time limits have been allotted for resolving grade problems. Spring and summer grades may not be changed after the last day of the following fall semester.

Fall grades cannot be changed after the last day of the following spring semester. Once this time limit has

Registration and Academic Policies

passed, all INC and NR grades will convert to grade of F. To view grades online: A. Log in with your oneKey at www.pratt.edu/myPratt; B. Click on “Academic Tools” on the left side of the page, and click “log in”; C. After the system logs you in, click on the “Students” menu on the sidebar; D. Choose from the options offered under “My Grades and Transcripts.”

Final Grades, Grade Disputes, and Grade Appeal Policies All grades are final as assigned by the instructor. If a student feels that a grade received is an error, or that he or she was graded unfairly, it is the student’s responsibility to make prompt inquiry of the instructor after the grade has been issued. Should this procedure not prove to be an adequate resolution, the student should contact the chair of the department in which the course was taken to arrange a meeting and appeal the grade. If this appeal is unsuc­cessful, a further and final appeal can be made to the dean of the school in which the course was taken. It is important to note that the faculty member who issued the grade holds the authority to change the grade except in cases of appealed grades.

If a grade is to be changed, the student must be sure that the change is submitted within the following semester.

Petitions of change of any grade will be accepted only up to the last day of the semester following the one in which the grade was given. Other than resolution of an initially assigned incomplete grade or of a final grade reported in error, no letter grade may be changed following graduation.

REPEATED COURSES A repeated course must be the same course as the one for which the previous final grade was awarded. Under­ grad­uate students must repeat all required courses in which F is the final grade. (HMS 101 and 103 courses must be repeated if a grade of C is not earned.) No under­ graduate student may choose to repeat a course that was passed with a grade of D or higher without specific authorization from the chair or dean. The initial grade will remain, but only the subsequent grade earned will be averaged in the cumulative index from the point of repeat onward.

GRADE POINT AVERAGE A student’s Grade Point Average is calculated by dividing the total Grade Points received by the total Credits Earned.

A Grade Point is computed by multiplying the Credits Attempted for each class by a numerical value called Quality

236

Points earned for completing that class. Only credits evaluated with letter grades that earn quality points (see table below) are used in GPA calculations. Each semester has a minimum length of 15 weeks. In courses that are passed, a credit is earned for each period (50 minutes) of lecture or recitation, and for approximately one and one-half periods of laboratory or studio work, each week throughout one term or the equivalent.

Quality Points A = 4.00 A– = 3.70 B+ = 3.30 B = 3.00 B– = 2.70

C+ = 2.30 C = 2.00 C– = 1.70 D+ = 1.30 D = 1.00 F = 0.00

(If unresolved at the end of the following semester, INC = F = 0.00 and NR = F = 0.00) In the following example the GPA is 3.33: Grade = Quality Points × Credits Earned = Grade Points A= 4.00 × 3 = 12.00 B+= 3.30 × 3 = 9.90 B–= 2.70 × 3 = 8.10

=30.00 Total Grade Points ÷ Total Credits Attempted = Grade Points 30 ÷ 9 = 3.33 — 30 (total grade points) divided by 9 (total credits) makes a GPA of 3.33.

INC (incomplete) and NR (no record) carry no numerical value for one semester after the grade is given. Thereafter, if unresolved, the INC and NR grades convert to an F and carry a numerical value of 0.

The following grades do not carry numerical values and are never calculated in the GPA: P—Pass CR—Credit U—Unsatisfactory WD—Withdrawal AUD—Audit NCR—No Credit IP—In Progress Final grades for credit transferred from other institutions to the student’s Pratt record are not computed in the GPA. ACADEMIC STANDING Pratt Institute’s policies on academic standing intend to ensure that all students receive timely notification when

Registration and Academic Policies

they are subject to academic discipline or achieve academic honors.

Each student is responsible at all times for knowing his or her own standing. These standings are based on the published academic policies, regulations, and standards of the Institute. Students subject to academic discipline are encouraged to take advantage of support services available to them, including academic advisement, in an effort to help them meet Institute academic standards.

All students’ records are reviewed at the end of each semester to determine whether any student who has failed to remain in Good Standing may continue in the program.

Good Standing All undergraduate students must maintain a cumulative GPA of at least a 2.0 (equivalent of a C) to remain in good standing. An undergraduate student whose GPA falls below a 2.0 at any time may be subject to academic discipline. The specific conditions under which this policy will be invoked are as set forth by the dean of each school. Written notification will be furnished to the student by the dean.

Qualitative Standards of Academic Standing The staff of each school’s advisement office evaluates the academic standing of its students twice during the academic year. The evaluations take place at the end of each major semester (fall and spring).

Academic standing is based on cumulative GPA (for academic discipline) and term GPA (for academic honors).

Beginning with the spring 1992 semester, a student’s GPA above 2.0 will be rounded to one decimal point in evalu­ating eligibility for President’s List and Dean’s List honors and eligibility for restricted and/or endowed scholarships.

Standard notification letters are mailed to students in the following categories: ll President’s List Honors recipients ll Dean’s List Honors recipients ll Academic probation standing ll Candidates for academic dismissal Semester-based distinctions are only available to under­ graduate students registered for 12 or more credits.

Semester-based distinctions are only available to students without any incomplete grades.

President’s List Honors recipients are defined as students whose term GPA is 3.6 or higher, and who have completed 12 or more credits in that term with no incomplete grades.

Dean’s List Honors recipients are defined as students whose term GPA is between 3.0 and 3.59, and who

237

have completed 12 or more credits in that term with no incomplete grades.

Academic Probation Students are, without exception, placed on academic probation in the first semester that their cumulative GPA falls in the ranges shown below: Associate Degree Credits Completed Cumulative GPA 1–23 1.500–1.999 24–58 1.500–1.999 59 or more < 2.00

Associate Degree Credits Completed 1–23 24–58 59 or more

Cumulative GPA < 1.500 < 1.500 < 2.00

4-Year Degree Credits Completed 1–23 24–58 59–97 98–134 135 or more

Cumulative GPA < 1.500 < 1.500 < 1.700 < 2.00 < 2.00

5-Year Degree Credits Completed 1–23 24–58 59–97 98–134 135 or more

4-Year Degree Credits Completed Cumulative GPA 1–23 1.500–1.999 24–58 1.500–1.999 59–97 1.700–1.999 98–134 < 2.00 135 or more < 2.00

Extenuating circumstances such as serious medical or personal disorders can lead to waiver of the academic dismissal. Probation may be offered to a student who completes an Appeal of Academic Dismissal form and obtains written approval from the dean of the school in which he or she is enrolled.

5-Year Degree Credits Completed Cumulative GPA 1–23 1.500–1.999 24–58 1.500–1.999 59–97 1.700–1.999 98–134 1.700–1.999 135 or more < 2.00

No indication of academic probation will appear on a student’s transcript, but a record of probation will be maintained in the student’s academic file.

Academic advisement staff sche­dules progress meetings as necessary with each student during his or her probation semester.

Academic Dismissal Students are limited to two non­consecutive probation semesters. Students who complete their first probation semester without achieving the required 2.0 cumulative average are subject to dismissal as described in item 1.

If a student has been granted two prior probationary semesters, and his or her cumulative average falls below 2.0 for a third time, that student is subject to dismissal.

Students who are dismissed can apply for readmission to Pratt and can seek advice on readmittance from the academic advisement staff of their school.

Students are subject to academic dismissal if their cumu­lative GPA is 2.0 or less at the end of an academic probation semester. Students are also subject to dismissal without prior probation if they do not meet minimum cumulative averages for their grade classification:

Registration and Academic Policies

Cumulative GPA < 1.500 < 1.500 < 1.700 < 2.00 < 2.00

STANDARDS OF DEGREE PROGRESS AND PURSUIT Students must make reasonable progress in terms of credits completed each term in addition to meeting the standard for cumulative GPA. These standards ensure that students are making steady progress toward graduation and can help students avoid excessive student loans. The total number of semesters a full-time student may be awarded financial aid is indicated in the table below. In order to be considered in good academic standing and to remain eligible for financial aid, full-time students must meet the following completed credit requirements to start the term shown.

Summer sessions do not count as terms in the table.

Students do not have to meet credit requirements to enter those terms and, if needed, can use those periods to “catch up” to meet the credits required for the next fall or spring term.

In order to maintain financial aid eligibility, the maximum number of attempted credits for completion of a degree is 150 percent of the required credits for that particular degree. Pratt will review each student’s eligibility at the end of each year. If the student has exceeded the maximum number of attempted credits for their degree program, the student will no longer be eligible for financial aid (grants or loans) during any future semesters.

238

Maximum Number of Attempted Credits 4-Year Bachelor’s Degree 201 4-Year Writing Bachelor’s Degree 195 5-Year Bachelor’s Degree 263 2-Year Associate’s Degree 104

Transfer students are evaluated for quantitative stand­ards based on the number of transfer credits accept­ed. For example, a student entering a four-year degree program who has 42 transfer credits accepted would need 59 credits completed at the end of his or her first semester to start the next semester in good academic standing.

Transfer students must comply with Institute qualitative standards from the time of enrollment.

Part-time students have double the time frames shown on page 324 to complete their studies. Credit require­ments for students who combine full- and parttime studies will be evaluated on an individual basis.

Students who are recipients under the New York State Tuition Assistance Program must also meet academic standards mandated by the State of New York. ll Be a U.S. citizen or eligible noncitizen. ll Be a legal resident of New York State a year prior to matriculation. ll Be a graduate of high school within the U.S., earned a GED or passed a federally approved “Ability to Benefit” test. ll Be registered for 12 credits or more in published required courses. ll Complete minimum 12 credits from previous semester in published required courses. ll Be in good academic standing with a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 or better.

DEGREE AUDITS Degree audits are computerized checklists of graduation requirements. These reports are similar to transcripts because they list all academic activity. They are different from transcripts, however, because they organize the coursework attempted into logical blocks that represent what is required. They also clearly flag what has been taken and what has yet to be taken.

There are four parts to an audit: 1. Student Information The top of the first page lists the student’s name, the academic program being evaluated, the catalog year that the requirements are being checked against, and the student’s anticipated graduation date (based on the date of admission). This section may also contain one or many text messages specific to the student, depending on his or her status at Pratt.

Registration and Academic Policies

2. Credit and GPA Information This area lists the total credits required for graduation, the number required to be taken at Pratt (residency), and the GPA required for graduation.

3. Required Course Information This section is usually the longest. It lists the entire range of requirements and electives specific to the academic program being evaluated. Fulfilled require­ ments will be listed with the grade earned (or CR for transfer credit). Missing requirements are also noted with credits needed.

4. Other Courses Courses that usually do not count toward a program’s requirements are listed in this bottom section.

Sometimes a course will not count toward graduation because it was dropped, or carries a grade that makes it ineligible for consideration such as an F or an INC. Also, some students choose to take an extra class for additional knowledge even though it doesn’t fulfill any particular degree requirement.

How to Get a Copy of a Degree Audit Students may view or print an audit at any time using their Academic Tools.

A. Log in with your oneKey at www.pratt.edu/myPratt; B. Click on “Academic Tools” on the left side of the page; C. After the system logs you in, click on the “Students” menu on the sidebar; D. Click on “Degree Audit” under “Course Planning”; E. In order to review an audit for the current academic program (major), click appropriate radio button.

In order to see what the results would look like in a different program, use the drop down list of majors next to Evaluate New Program to select a potential major to review.

Students may go online and receive a degree audit at any time. If you do not have a computer or access to a computer lab, come to the Office of the Registrar.

Students who have questions about how to read the audit should visit their academic adviser’s office or stop by the Office of the Registrar during office hours for an explanation.

Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy Undergraduate students in the School of Art, School of Design, and School of Architecture are expected to make appropriate academic progress in their major, as well as in Liberal Arts and Sciences and in History of Art and Design or History and Theory of Architecture.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY CODE When a student submits any work for academic credit, he or she makes an implicit claim that the work is wholly his or her own, done without the assistance of any person or source not explicitly noted, and that the work has not previously been submitted for academic credit in any area. Students are free to study and work together on homework assignments unless specifically asked not to by the instructor. In addition, students, especially inter­ national students, are encouraged to seek the editorial assistance they may need for writing assignments, term papers, and theses. The Writing and Tutorial Center staff is available to clarify issues of academic standards and

Registration and Academic Policies

to provide writing and tutorial help for all Pratt students.

In the case of examinations (tests, quizzes, etc.), the student also implicitly claims that he or she has obtained no prior unauthorized information about the examination, and neither gives nor obtains any assistance during the examination. Moreover, a student shall not prevent others from completing their work.

Examples of violations include but are not limited to the following: A. The supplying or receiving of completed papers, outlines, or research for submission by any person other than the author.

B. The submission of the same, or essentially the same, paper or report for credit on two different occasions.

C. The supplying or receiving of unauthorized information about the form or content of an examination prior to its first being given, specifi­cally including unauthorized pos­session of exam material prior to the exam.

D. The supplying or receiving of partial or complete answers, or suggestions for answers, of assistance in interpretation of questions on any examination from any source not explicitly authorized. (This includes copying or reading of another student’s work or consultation of notes or other sources during examinations.)

E. Plagiarism. (See statement following which defines plagiarism.)

F. Copying or allowing copying of assigned work or falsification of information.

G. Unauthorized removal or unneces­sary “hoarding” of study or research materials or equipment intended for common use in assigned work, including the sequestering of library materials.

H. Alteration of any materials or apparatus that would interfere with another student’s work.

I. Forging a signature to certify completion of a course assignment or a recommendation and the like.

Plagiarism Plagiarism means presenting, as one’s own, the words, the work, information, or the opinions of someone else.

It is dishonest, since the plagiarist offers, as his or her own, for credit, the language or information or thought for which he or she deserves no credit.

Plagiarism occurs when one uses the exact language of someone else without putting the quoted material in quotation marks and giving its source. (Exceptions are very well known quotations, from the Bible or Shakespeare, for example.) In formal papers, the source is acknow­ ledged in a footnote; in informal papers, it may be put in parentheses, or made a part of the text: “Robert Sherwood says...”

241

This first type of plagiarism, using without acknow­ ledging the language of someone, is easy to understand and to avoid. When a writer uses the exact words of another writer, or speaker, he or she must put those words in quotation marks and give their source.

A second type of plagiarism is more complex. It occurs when the writer presents, as his or her own, the sequence of ideas, the arrangement of material, or the pattern of thought of someone else, even though he or she expresses it in his or her own words. The language may be his or hers, but he or she is presenting as his or her work, and taking credit for, the work of another. He or she is, there­ fore, guilty of plagiarism if he or she fails to give credit to the original author of the pattern of ideas.

GRADUATION AND DEGREES Degrees are conferred by the Institute upon the recommendation of the dean and faculty of the various schools. This is done three times a year.

Commencement Ceremony One commencement ceremony is held each year at the end of the spring semester. Students who successfully complete their studies in October or February are invited to attend the ceremony that is held following their graduation. Students who anticipate a summer/October completion date should attend the ceremony that is held the May following their graduation. Students who will graduate in summer/October and cannot attend Commence­ment the following spring may apply for Permission to Walk in May Commencement in the Registrar’s Office. Their names will not appear in the commencement program, nor will they receive their diplomas early. Attendance at commencement does not guarantee graduation from the Institute.

Graduation with Honors For all associate and baccalaureate degrees to be grad­ uated with honors, a student must have earned a final cumulative GPA no lower than 3.5 in all work. A minimum final cumulative GPA of 3.75 is required for graduation with highest honors. To be considered for honors, a student must have completed a minimum of 50 percent of degree credits at Pratt. These credits must be earned in semesters evaluated with a GPA. Application for Graduation Students wishing to be considered for graduation must file a Graduation Application. The application is available to the students online through myPratt. Applications must be filed on or before the following deadlines:

Registration and Academic Policies

Graduation Summer Term/October Fall Term/February Spring Term/May

File on or Before March 25 August 25 December 15

Using the application, candidates indicate: 1. Their anticipated graduation term.

2. The exact spelling and punctuation of their name as it is to appear on the diploma.

3. Their hometown and state/country as it is to appear in the commencement program.

4. The Diploma Mailing Address to be used to mail diplomas.

Information can be updated before the application dead­line by simply filling out and submitting the graduation app­li­ca­ tion again. If the candidate is not cleared for the announced graduation, a new application must be filed for each subse­quently requested graduation. Only after the appli­ cation has been submitted to the Office of the Registrar will the candidate’s name be placed on a tentative graduation list. At that time, the graduation review is scheduled.

Diploma Clearance Students who have completed their academic require­ ments but who have outstanding financial obligations to the Institute will be graduated; however, the diploma will be held and no transcript will be released until their financial account is cleared in full.

Graduation Requirements Final graduation requirements include the following: 1. Grade Requirements Undergraduate students must be in good standing, with a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0. In courses constituting the student’s major as formally specified in advance by his or her departmental chair, the student must have received a grade of C or better in each or have a cumulative GPA in these courses of at least 2.0. Any outstanding INC, NG, or NR grades from any previous semester(s) that are pending resolution must be resolved.

Failure to do so will result in removal from the graduation list. When final grades are reported for the last term of active registration, any reported INC or NR grade for a graduation candidate will automatically remove the candidate from the graduation list. Students who have been removed from consideration must complete a new application for graduation in order to be considered for another graduation date.

2. Curriculum Requirements Each student must fulfill all require­ments for grad­ uation. No credits required for graduation will be

242

waived. All requests for an exception to this rule must be referred to the Dean’s office for consideration.

A course require­ment in a student’s major may be substituted by the Department Chair/Adviser of the department in which the student is enrolled; however, another course in the same subject area must be taken.

3. To earn a baccalaureate degree, students are required to complete a minimum of 48 credits of work at the Institute, 32 of which are the last chronological credits registered within Pratt.

REQUIREMENTS FOR A SECOND PRATT BACCALAUREATE DEGREE Candidates for a second baccalaureate degree must first be accepted by the Office of Admissions for degree matriculation in an area essentially different in content from that of the first degree. The following conditions are applicable when the first baccalaureate degree was granted by: Pratt Institute Persons holding a baccalaureate degree from Pratt Institute and who are matriculated for a second bacca­ laureate degree from the Institute will be evaluated according to the major background to determine their remaining program and credit requirements. Of these, a minimum of 32 additional credits in residence for a four-year program of study, or a minimum of 48 additional credits of residence in a five-year program of study must be taken within the new program.

An Accredited Institution Other Than Pratt Institute Persons holding a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution other than Pratt Institute will be evaluated according to the type of baccalaureate and the major background in order to determine their remaining program and credit requirements, of which a minimum of 48 credits must be taken in residency at Pratt.

Changes To This Bulletin While every effort has been made to make the material presented in this Bulletin timely and accurate, the Institute reserves the right to periodically update and otherwise change any material, including faculty listings, course offerings, policies, and procedures, without reprinting or amending this Bulletin.

Student Affairs

The mission of Residential Life and Housing is to efficiently and effectively administer a housing program in a learningcentered environment that supports students while challenging them to: ll Enhance self-understanding; ll Value community responsibility; ll Learn from their experiences.

Residential Life and Housing holds the belief that student development and learning goes on outside the classroom, as well as inside the classroom. The policies, procedures, and programs that are established and encouraged

by Residential Life and Housing are those that enhance student learning and involvement outside the classroom.

The office takes very seriously its role as guarantor of a residence-hall atmosphere conducive to work and study.

We also strive to provide an atmosphere in which students are encouraged to make informed decisions on their own, take responsibility for their actions, and learn from their experiences.

Leadership development opportunities are offered to students in the residence halls through participation in Residence Hall Councils, the Residence Hall Advisery Committee (a student advisery committee to Residential Life and Housing), Sustainability Reps, Dining Services Reps, and the Connections Leadership class.

The Residential Life staff wants to provide a memorable, enjoyable, and successful academic year but reminds students that we are jointly responsible for the success of

this experience. Through participation, cooperation, understanding, and communication, all can enjoy the time spent in the residence halls at Pratt Institute.

Residential Life and Housing at Pratt Institute is based on a specific set of values. These values guide the expectations the office has for itself and for the students who reside on campus and extend to the residence halls in many direct ways. They are: ll Personal rights and responsibilities ll Integrity ll Respect ll Fairness and justice ll Open communication ll Involvement The educational mission of Pratt Institute is actively pursued in the residence halls. An expected outcome of the on-campus experience is to have students learn to cope and deal with problems that arise. Though this is not always an easy task, if a student is able to learn from an adverse situation, the goal has been achieved. Along with this is the ability for students to take responsibility for their choices and behaviors. If students make an inappropriate choice, they should expect to be held accountable.

The hope is that a different choice will be made the next time, more in keeping with the community expectations set forth.

The Residence Halls Pratt Institute maintains six under­graduate residence halls that accom­modate approximately 1,790 students.

The focus of our residential life program is on providing a comfortable yet challenging environment in which students will become integral members of the campus community.

This is fostered by educational approaches and programming.

Pratt residence halls offer a variety of housing options, including rooms with and without kitchens, doubles, and singles. All rooms on campus have CATV and internet access. All residence halls have laundry facilities, with the cost of laundry included in the room fee. Pratt also offers campus meal plans for students who like the convenience of eating on campus. Those students who live on campus in rooms without kitchens are automatically enrolled in a mandatory meal plan.

Cannoneer Court Cannoneer Court accommodates 180 first-year students.

This traditional corridor-style residence houses students in double rooms. Rooms are single-sex, but floors are coed. Bathrooms are communal. The traditional nature

Student Affairs

and small size of this residence hall promote strong comm­unity and allow a great deal of building-wide student social exchange. The building has a TV lounge and work area as well as a garden courtyard. The rooms are air condi­ tioned and carpeted. Room measurements are 15 x 12 feet.

Students may not reside in Cannoneer Court during the summer months.

Esther Lloyd-Jones Hall Esther Lloyd-Jones Hall (ELJ) is named for a trendsetter in modern American higher education. ELJ accommodates a total of 80 upperclass students in suite-style accom­ modations of single- and double- occupancy rooms. Suites are single-sex, but floors are coed. Rooms vary in size from 11 x 16 feet to 12 x 18 feet. Students are responsible for the healthy upkeep of their rooms, including shared suite bathrooms. The building has a TV lounge on the first floor.

Leo J. Pantas Hall Leo J. Pantas Hall is a suite-style undergraduate hall that accommodates 212 first-year residents. Students live in four–person suites, which consist of two double rooms (two people in each double room). Each 10 x 16-foot bedroom has a separate 8 x 9-foot entry from the hallway.

All rooms are air conditioned. Each suite has its own bathroom. Each suite is responsible for the healthy upkeep of the common bathroom area. Suites are single-sex, but floors are coed. The building boasts a large work area in addition to a dramatic main lounge area with large-screen TV, foosball table, and kitchenette. Its central location on campus makes it desirable to students. Its clock tower serves as a campus land­mark. Pantas Hall is not open during the summer months except to house special conference groups.

The Townhouses Pratt Institute’s newest and most exciting housing option, the Townhouses are remodeled historic row houses located near the center of campus. Six students reside in each house in single rooms on three floors. Each house is coed and offers a full kitchen, living room, parlor, backyard area, and basement. Each room is provided with the standard campus furniture (bed, armoire, dressers, desk, chair, and bookshelf). Amenities include CATV and Internet access. Preference for this housing option, which accommodates 120 upperclass students, is given to juniorand senior-level students.

Vincent A. Stabile Hall Vincent A. Stabile Hall opened in fall 1999. Named for the donor, a graduate of the former Engineering School, Stabile

248

Hall was designed for new students. It houses 225 first-year students in four-person suites. Each suite consists of two double rooms and its own bath. Suites are single-sex, but floors are coed. With few exceptions, the room dimensions, not including the small entry foyer, are 12 x 12 feet. Students are responsible for the healthy upkeep of the common bathroom area. There are kitchenettes located on each floor. The award-winning design of the building boasts a large common lounge. Smaller work and lounge spaces on each floor contribute to a vital living and working environment. All rooms are air conditioned. Stabile Hall is not open during the summer months except to house special conference groups.

Willoughby Residence Hall Willoughby Residence Hall is a former 17-story apartment co-op and is the largest residence hall. It accommodates about 900 upperclass and graduate students. The building houses offices (Residential Life and Housing, Health and Counseling, and the Learning/Access Center) as well as a student workroom, TV lounge, convenience store, laundry facilities, and other com­mon student lounge areas. Suites are single-sex, but floors are coed. Rooms vary in size from 9 x 12 feet to 15 x 18 feet. In addition to the standard furniture, all suites have a kitchen table, stove, and refrigerator. Each resident is provided with a bookcase.

All students assigned to double, triple, and single spaces will share kitchen and bathroom facilities with other residents of the suite. The converted apartments consist of at least one double or triple that occ­upies the former living room space of the apartment and at least one private single room that occupies the former bedroom space of the apartment. The number of students residing in a given suite usually ranges from three to six students (depending upon the size of the con­verted apartment— one-bedroom, two-bedroom, or three-bedroom).

Willoughby Residence Hall remains open all year. However, residents on certain floors might have to relocate to different floors during the summer months for the purpose of mainten­ance and upkeep.

Special Housing Options In addition to the traditional housing choices offered, several special housing options are provided for under­ graduate students. Students indicate their preference for these options during the online housing preference process.

Quiet Floors Quiet Floors are an option for both continuing and new students. Though all residence hall floors have quiet hours (10 PM–9 AM weekdays and 11 PM–9 AM weekends), some

Student Affairs

students desire a more controlled environment. Students who choose to live on a Quiet Floor are provided a living and working environment where noise levels are kept to a minimum 24 hours a day. Noise levels include sound inside student apartments, in the hallway, and among apartment mates. Students residing on the Quiet Floors will serve as self-regulatory agents. As is the case with the courtesyhours policy on non-quiet floors, it is expected that all students on the Quiet Floors will abide by requests of fellow students to lower noise levels.

Gender Inclusive Community Gender Inclusive Community has been operating since 2003 and continues to be an option in Willoughby Hall.

It provides an alternative to single-sex housing. This opp­ ort­­unity allows students to live with others of differing genders in a community supporting identity understanding.

Students are placed in apartments with roommates and/or apartment mates who may not be of the same gender.

Healthy Choices Floors Healthy Choices Floors provide an environment conducive to living and study while promoting healthy life choices.

The floors are substance-free. This means there is no smoking; consumption, serving, or possession of alcohol is not permitted regardless of age; and, as in all residence halls, illegal drugs are prohibited. The guidelines for the Healthy Choices Floors indicate that, while on the floor, residents will be substance-free. However, it is expected that respect be shown to those who choose to lead a substance-free lifestyle on and off the floor. Therefore, residents must acknowledge that choices they make off campus have an effect on the floor community and make these choices with respect for others on the floor.

All residents are responsible for participating as positive members of the community. For example, this may take the form of participating in or planning programs that center on making healthy life choices. Floor activities will be planned based on the concept of making healthy lifestyle choices and providing alternative social activities.

Healthy Choices Floors are offered in both first-year and upperclass halls.

Global Learning Community Global Learning Community is a living environment that promotes cultural exchange among first-year resident students. The community, composed of both international and domestic students, is a diverse group willing to learn from others and share their experiences. Programs focus on social interactions promoting cultural exchange, exploring diverse resources in the city, and connecting

249

culture to the students’ work. Students in the community agree to be active participants through attending programs and getting to know others. Students are also encouraged to plan events and programs. A central goal of this housing option is to enhance understanding of the global community and various cultures and nations. Residents have a unique experience that pairs their freshman English class with the special-interest housing theme.

The English class incorporates global issues and receives special funding to attend a course-related performance off campus and other exceptional activities. Learning communities allow students to interact more with their English faculty and make it easier to seek out study partners, ask homework questions, and share insights and information with classmates who are also neighbors.

Community Service Floor The Community Service Floor is an option for first-year students. The floor provides an opportunity for students to work to improve their communities and learn from their service. The floor is a great place for like-minded individuals to meet and interact. The community’s mission is to explore service initiatives that improve the quality of life for others around them. Previous projects include art murals, park beautification, animal shelter work, card making, and food and clothing drives. Residents of the floor determine service projects and topics of interest. On the Community Service Floor, residents have a unique experience that pairs their freshman English class with the special-interest housing theme. The English class incorporates social justice issues and receives special funding to attend a course-related performance off campus and other exceptional activities. Learning communities allow students to interact more with their English faculty and make it easier to seek out study partners, ask homework questions, and share insights and information with classmates who are also neighbors.

Art History Learning Communities Art History Learning Communities are available in all firstyear halls. Students from one residence hall make up an entire Themes in Art and Culture section (required of all School of Art and School of Design students). The learning community emphasizes engagement and discussion and receives special funding to attend a course-related performance or tour. Learning communities allow students to interact more with their Art History faculty and make it easier to seek out study partners, ask homework questions, and share insights and information with classmates who are also neighbors.

The cost for meals does not include incidental purchases students may make at the convenience store.

The annual meal plan rates for 2017–18 are $1,050, $1,770, and $2,063 per semester.

Students not living in mandatory meal plan areas, upper­­­class students, and commuters may opt for any annual or semester-only plan. Two semester plans exist to accommodate a variety of student needs. These plans are per semester only. The semester meal plan rates for 2017–18 are $250 and $710. Purchasing a meal plan can save the student almost 10 percent versus paying cash.

The Center for Career and Professional Development (CCPD) inspires and supports students and alumni while educating them about emerging trends, the job market, and what it takes to be a professional creative in the workplace. We believe that preparing for a fulfilling, meaningful, and productive career is one of the most important co-curricular activities for Pratt students.

The CCPD augments Pratt's state-of-the-art curriculum offerings with career and internship advising, industry mentoring, professional development resources, work­ shops, and entrepreneurial education. We combine an excellent academic creative experience with a lifetime job and career transition support system.

CCPD staff members stay abreast of changing trends and employer needs, and guide Pratt students into an easy transition from college into the work environment.

We maintain relationships with employers and internship providers nationally and internationally, and offer many ways for employers to reach and recruit from the talented Pratt community.

Staff work with stu­dents on professional learning goals for internship placements and career goals for their job search and small business planning. Extended support is offered in the areas of exhibition submissions, grants, fellowships, and residencies. We encourage peer learning through our Pratt Success program to expand the leader­ ship opportunities on campus.

The CCPD provides resources de­signed to foster meaningful connections between emerging artists and professionals through the following services: ll Professional Development Programming We welcome classroom visits to the center every semester and offer presentations on résumé building, networking, interviewing skills, developing an online presence, portfolio presentation, self-promotion, freelancing, and starting your own business. Guest speakers and recruiters come to campus every semester to speak about careers in creative industries, review portfolios, and hold interview sessions. ll Individual and Group Career Advising Individual career advising is available to Pratt students and alumni for life. All CCPD staff have backgrounds as working creatives in major-related industries.

Group advising sessions and discipline-specific career workshops are scheduled through­out the year. ll Entrepreneurship Training The CCPD has developed resources to help students and alumni build skills and strategies to become successful entrepreneurs. The Meditation Incubator project offers the Creative Mind, Business Mind course,

Student Affairs

which teaches participants meditation, visualization, and self-reflection techniques to deepen their creative process and use as business planning tools. The Student Startup Center provides resources that help students and alumni pursue entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship, and business development goals. The Refinery, launched in fall 2015, is an intensive training program for aspiring entrepreneurs culminating in a pitch comp­etition, and the first program of its kind at a school of art and design. ll Industry Outreach and Pratt Pro Job Board The CCPD manages the Pratt Pro job board, on which thousands of new positions are posted each year.

We perform outreach to employers around the world, developing a pipeline to help move Pratt students and alumni into their job openings. We visit studios and organize firm trips for students so that they can learn about the latest industry trends. Pratt Institute hosts numerous portfolio reviews and thesis exhibitions of current and graduating students’ work, including multiple end-of-year events highlighting the best work of the graduating class. Each year, the CCPD hosts opportunity fairs, roundtable discussions, and creativecareer conferences with visiting partners, recruiters, and industry leaders. All of our programs are developed to educate students and alumni as well as provide networking opportunities with the creative professional community. ll Developing an Online Portfolio The CCPD professional staff can help students develop their portfolio and online presence. Pratt Institute and the CCPD have partnered with Behance to launch “Pratt Institute Portfolios” at portfolios.pratt.edu. This is an exciting opportunity for students to promote their work under the Pratt brand. With the Behance platform, “Pratt Institute Portfolios” reaches a wide audience of industry professionals on the lookout for the best creative talent.

The staff of the CCPD welcomes your questions. To make an appointment or to find out how the CCPD can help you, contact career@pratt.edu or call 718.636.3506.

Pratt Institute Internship Program Each Pratt student has the opportunity to gain hands-on professional experience in New York City and beyond through an academic internship program administered in collaboration with department faculty. The CCPD supports students in gaining hands-on professional experience interning at companies such as Condé Nast, Unified Field, Knoll, and many more.

252

Internships play a crucial role in developing skills and offering professional perspectives. An internship at Pratt is an academic opportunity available to full-time matri­culated students every semester, including summer semester. For more information about internships, such as eligibility, the registration process, and deadlines, visit www.pratt.edu/career and click on “Students and Alumni,” then “Internship Program.” In most cases, students must complete one full semester to be eligible for academic credit for an internship.

What Are Internships?

Internships are learning experiences in the workplace that relate to students’ major or professional pursuits.

Interns are able to take the skills and theories learned in the class­­room and apply them to real-life work experi­ ence. Intern­ships are an opportunity to try a specific field, organization, or company and participate as a trainee within that site. Internships also allow students to develop a network of professional contacts and build relationships in the field, which will serve them well as emerging professionals.

Some key components of a Pratt Internship: ll The experience is a full semester. ll The experience can be paid or unpaid. ll Internships are available to all domestic, international, and transfer students during their time at Pratt. ll Internship credits vary from 0 to 3 credits based on student need, number of hours worked, and individual departmental policy. ll To obtain academic credit for an internship, students must be enrolled in an internship course at the same time they are participating in the internship.

Students are required to attend one of the internship information sessions offered throughout the year in the CCPD to learn more about the internship program, how to begin an internship search, and how to find departmental eligibility information.

To make an appointment or to learn the dates of the next intern­ship information session, contact career@pratt.edu or call 718.636.3506.

The L/AC collaborates to provide Institute-wide advise­ment and consultation on disability-related matters (including legal compliance and universal design) and provides individual services and tools to facilitate diverse learning styles and accommodations in a sustainable, inclusive manner.

Students come to Pratt from varying academic backgrounds, and students’ learning needs also vary. The L/AC has staff and tools available to help all Pratt students who are working toward academic success. To that end, at the L/AC, students can meet with staff, explore assistive technology, and take part in student success program­ ming. Additionally, the L/AC offers short-term, one-on-one meetings to help students struggling with academic dif­fi­culties. If it is determined that further evaluation is necessary to test for the presence of learning disabilities or psychological or psychiatric conditions, the L/AC can help students with securing referrals.

Additionally, the L/AC coordinates access for students with disabilities. Students with disabilities can enroll with the L/AC to determine and receive reasonable accom­ modations for classroom, housing, and other campus settings. The L/AC maintains confidential records of docu­ mentation of disability for all current and prospective Pratt students who identify as having disabilities, including learning disorders, AD/HD, psychological/psychiatric conditions, chronic illnesses, physical/mobility conditions, blindness, low vision, hearing loss, and temporary dis­ abilities. After meeting with the student and conducting a review of the documentation and individualized student needs, the L/AC determines and coordinates individualized academic accommodations, including but not limited to extended test time, distraction-reduced exam setting, sign language interpreting, etc. The L/AC also arranges auxiliary aids for students, such as FM Units, assistive learning software, and books in alternative formats. The L/AC assists

253

students in connecting with helpful Institute resources, advocates for students, and collaborates with campus department administrators regarding specific student needs, including psychological support, special housing, and dietary needs.

Meeting with L/AC staff to privately discuss your academic experiences is the first step in the process of developing a support plan, regardless of what academic or access issues exist. We encourage you to contact the L/AC to speak further with staff about our services and how we may assist you. To schedule an appointment, please email the L/AC at lac@pratt.edu or call 718.802.3123.

Clinical AOD Services Coordinator Jernee Montoya, L.C.S.W. jmontoya@pratt.edu

Nurses Christine Susca, R.N. csusca@pratt.edu

Health and Counseling operates both by appointment and as a walk-in clinic. All care provided is strictly confidential, and information about care remains separate from a student’s academic and social conduct record. The office is open on weekdays from 9 AM to 5 PM, with the last appointments made at 4 PM. Check the website for up-to-date information about hours and services.

The medical staff includes the director, who is a family nurse prac­titioner; two nurse practitioners; a physician attending the clinic weekly during the academic year; and two nurses. Services provided include treatment of illnesses; first aid for injuries; physicals, including sports and women’s health examinations; health education; and medical testing.

Pregnancy testing is performed in the office for free; however, other tests are sent to a laboratory service, which will bill the student or the student’s insurance provider.

Some commonly used medications (over-the-counter and prescription) are dispensed for free or for a nominal fee.

Students must purchase all other medication at a pharmacy. Referrals are made to local medical resources for care not provided on campus.* The counseling staff includes clinical psychologists, clinical social workers, and a consulting psychiatrist who are each available by appointment to meet with students.

Students may receive counseling on a short-term basis for personal, emotional, family, interpersonal, and situational problems. Consultation is available on campus, and referrals for specialty services can be made.

Since Health and Counseling is not designed to meet the total health care needs of students, referrals

254

are some­­times made to outside clinics and agencies. The staff is committed to helping students find the best source of health care at the lowest cost. Hospital and medical care beyond that provided by Health and Counseling is the financial responsibility of the student and his or her family.

For this purpose, Pratt Institute requires all students to carry health and accident insurance.

Students are automatically enrolled in a health and accident insurance plan. They may waive this insurance fee, which will be deducted from their bill, by provid­ing insurance information in the online student insurance system, Aetna Student Health, prior to the waiver deadline. This deadline always falls on the same day as the last day to drop or add courses for the semester.

All students who were born after January 1, 1957, must provide proof of immunity against measles, mumps, and rubella. New York State law requires written docu­ mentation of two measles-mumps-rubella vaccines or written docu­ment­ation of immunity to these diseases proved by a blood test. Students are absolutely required to have written documentation in order to attend classes.

Immunization against meningococcal meningitis is strongly recommended for students planning to live in on-campus housing.† A complete medical history and a comprehensive physical examination are also required for all new students.

The Office of International Affairs (OIA) welcomes approx­i­mately 600 new international students each year.

There are currently about 1,600 international students from 80 countries. In addition to providing services to international students, the OIA takes care of J-1 exchange visitors, including inbound exchange students, professors, and scholars. The OIA is the office in charge of keeping Pratt in compliance with the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of State.

The well-traveled and experienced staff members are here to help students make a successful transition to the Pratt community and help address some of the challenges that students might encounter during their academic program. They create a friendly envir­on­ment, providing direct support with immigration issues, employment authorization, personal issues, and cross-cultural events.

The OIA advises the Pratt International Student Association (PISA), which is open for all to join. * Numerous and varied resources are available at the Health and Counseling page of the Pratt website at www.pratt.edu/health. †N ew York State does not require this vaccine but does require a signed acknowledgment of receipt and review of vaccine information.
