If you're a high school student interested in art or design, you'll want to know about two exciting programs offered in Cornell University Summer College's three-week session from June 25 to July 16:
If you've ever been awed by a building or enjoy drawing sketches, then the Design Immersion: Exploring Interior, Graphic, and Product Design program may be right up your alley!
This three-week immersion program will introduce you to how designers think, solve problems and help us interact with everything in our world, from street signs and parks to skateboards and websites. You will also explore how the creative problem-solving process is similar in a variety of design disciplines, including interior, graphic, product and industrial design.
You'll also learn how design professionals can help to build a more sustainable, socially responsible future for our world and participate in skill-building, hands-on workshops, digital explorations and field trips to museums and LEED certified buildings.
The Art as Experience: Drawing, Animation, and New Media program combines studio work in a variety of mediums – from drawing and printmaking to digital video – with readings, discussions and field trips. Through hands-on investigation, you'll explore visual concepts including:
- Representation and abstraction;
- The original and the copy;
- Text, image, and digital reproduction;
- The moving image; and
- Exhibition and installation.
As a summer student at Cornell, you'll have access to the extensive collection of books and journals in the Fine Arts Library and the nightly offerings of films at Cornell Cinema. All of these venues will be excellent resources for researching assignments and for general study.
