Graduate programs are located on both campuses. See www.pratt.edu/admissions/applying/ applying-graduate/ for a list of locations and programs. Pratt’s programs are consistently ranked among the best in the country; its faculty and alumni include the most renowned artists, designers, architects, and scholars in their fields. Its programs encourage collaboration and the development of creative strategies for design thinking. 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. Pratt’s location is unparalleled for access to design firms and art galleries where students can intern and museums and concert halls where they may enjoy all of the city’s cultural offerings.

WHERE CREATIVE MINDS ARE INSPIRED. Brooklyn Campus Located just 25 minutes from 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 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-square-foot building is a testament to Pratt’s commitment to sustainability.

Pratt Institute

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 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 Victorian-era 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-thecentury Romanesque Revival building. Pratt’s Manhattanbased 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, 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-of‑the-art computer labs support the academic programs.

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, architects, 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 across 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 multimedia, as well as stock photography. It offers a wide range of electronic resources, including general and subject-specific databases, all of which are available off-site. Cultural Partnerships in New York City The Institute has created partnerships with a number of major cultural institutions so students may take advantage of the vast opportunities offered 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, located close to the Brooklyn campus, has an impressive permanent collection and Egyptian art collection. The Asian art collection is one of the more diverse and comprehensive in the New York metropolitan area. 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. It captures 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. You can see productions ranging from performance art and independent films to stylized Shakespearean productions. Pratt students can attend BAM events at discounted rates. In Manhattan, Pratt students also enjoy visiting these institutions where admission fees are waived: the 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. Study Abroad Programs Pratt’s study abroad programs combine the Institute’s academic excellence with firsthand exposure to some of the most vibrant international centers of art, design, and architecture.

Commitment to Sustainability Pratt Institute takes a leadership role in sustainability for schools of art, design, and architecture nationwide. At this critical moment, when our environment and ways of life are at risk, we have a responsibility to ensure that each of our graduates has a deep awareness of ecology, environmental issues, and social justice. 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. In 2010, Myrtle Hall, a LEED Gold-certified building designed by the firm WASA/Studio A, was completed. 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 professional lives. Within each program, Pratt students are offered an 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 sustain able 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.

of Brooklyn’s major institutions. He dreamed of founding an institution where pupils could learn trades through the skillful use of their hands and accomplished this dream in 1887 when Pratt opened its doors. Today, Pratt offers students more than 25 undergraduate majors and concen trations—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 Pratt receives approximately 2,900 applications for its graduate class of 500, enabling the admissions committees to select a student body whose members have a wide variety of backgrounds. Thirty-four percent of the new graduate class comes from other countries, including China, Taiwan, India, South Korea, Mexico, Canada, Thailand, and Turkey. Thirty-seven percent of the graduate 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, 87 percent of graduate students choose to study full-time, reflecting a high degree of commitment. The Institute’s entire student body is composed of 4,632 undergrad uate and graduate students—33 percent men and 67 percent women. Living on Campus While there is limited housing on campus, most graduate students live off-campus in a variety of housing options, from apartments to brownstones and lofts, sharing with other students. Many opportunities are listed through the Office of Residential Life. Various optional meal plans are available for residential students.

THE 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 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 profes sion. A philanthropist and visionary, he supported many

Studies in the School of Architecture gather from the arts, sciences, and liberal arts to produce works of value that are sensitive to the realities of life in the cultures of the world. Graduates are imbued with strong ethics and an understanding of architects’ ability to improve quality of life. As a result, they know how to build, what to build for whom, and how to enhance the surrounding environment, in the city or country, in a public works project or a private home. The Graduate Architecture and Urban Design programs offer three graduate degrees—one professional and two post-professional. The first-professional Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) degree is an 84-credit, three-year professional degree program for students holding a four-year undergraduate degree in any field. This program prepares students to take the architectural licensing exam and to become practicing architects. Students may also receive advanced standing for pursuing further graduate studies. The post-professional Master of Science in Architecture (M.S. Arch. degree) is a 36-credit, three-semester (summer, fall, spring) program for those who hold an accredited five-year Bachelor of Architecture or the equivalent. A thesis is completed in the final semester. The post-professional Master of Architecture and Urban Design degree is a 33-credit, three-semester (summer, fall, spring) program for those who hold an accredited five-year Bachelor of Architecture or the equivalent. A culmination project is completed in the final semester. Students in the M.S. Arch. and the Urban Design programs are encouraged to develop specialized areas of research. The School of Architecture is dedicated to maintaining the connection between design theory and practice and to extending the range of knowledge necessary to fully understand the built environment. The diversity of programs within the school, and the accessibility of other programs within the Institute, enables students to pursue a wide range of interests within the field. Architecture students may take electives in fine arts, illustration, computer graphics, industrial design, furniture design, interior design, and photography, as well as electives in advanced architec tural theory, design, technology, and management. The school’s location in New York City allows students immediate and frequent access to the city’s resources. The grad

uate programs also have excellent internal resources: a strong faculty, good facilities, and a developing research network that connects the department and its students to serious national and international work in the field. This network brings distinguished visitors to speak to graduate students in a research forum; invites visiting faculty to teach studios, workshops, and seminars; and forges extensive and thoughtful connections with international cities and throughout the United States. The opportunity to learn from peers is also an exciting part of the educational experience at Pratt. Post-professional degree students come from a wide range of architectural practice, and first-professional degree students come from diverse fields of undergraduate study. The student body includes many inter national 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 School of Architecture demonstrates daily that learning does not occur solely within the classroom. This is reflected in the annual undergraduate and graduate lecture series, which bring some of the most influential architects in the world to campus; the Center for Experimental Structures; exhibitions by students and faculty that fill three galleries on a regular basis; and the study abroad programs in Italy and France. The school publication, InProcess, documents student work throughout the year. Pratt’s Center for Community Development, formerly PICCED, one of the oldest community advocacy and technical assistance organizations in the United States, gives students additional opportunities to work on real-life projects. 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 professional degrees. The School of Architecture’s mission is to educate the future leaders of the design disciplines in the professional fields of archi tecture, urban design, city and regional planning, construction and facilities management, and historic preservation. 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 provides a broad cultural and intellectual base in the liberal arts and sciences while providing the specialized knowledge unique to individual disci plines. The importance of lifelong learning is emphasized through studio-based curricula and research-oriented thesis programs. 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 profes sional 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 accreditation, depending on the extent of its conformance with established educational standards. Doctor of Architecture and Master of Architecture degree programs may require a preprofessional undergraduate degree in architecture for admission. However, the preprofessional degree is not, by itself, recognized as an accredited degree. Pratt’s Graduate Architecture and Urban Design offers the following NAAB-accredited programs: M. Arch (non-preprofessional degree + 84 credits). Next accreditation visit for all programs: 2017. Pratt’s Graduate Planning Program is accredited by the Planning Accreditation Board and offers a two-year Master of Science degree in City and Regional Planning. The Facilities Management program is non-accredited and offers a two-year Master of Science degree in Facilities Management. The School of Architecture reserves the right to temporarily retain during the academic year, for exhibition and classroom purposes, representative work of any student enrolled in its programs.

Graduate Architecture and Urban Design offers a firstprofessional degree in architecture and post-professional degrees in architecture and urban design. The mission of the Graduate Architecture and Urban Design (GAUD) programs is twofold. For the first-professional degree program, students develop expertise to engage and lead complex architectural projects in the professional practice of architecture through the exploration and development of substantive methods of design and inquiry across the discipline. For the post-professional programs, both in architecture and in urban design, the mission is to expand a student’s established professional education into new forms of thinking, types of practices, and areas of expertise. In all cases, each program promotes a student’s lifelong relationship with his or her field. Students in GAUD are immersed in an exploratory design-studio culture. The three distinct degrees within the two programs—Architecture and Urban Design—share coursework, students, faculty, and events, thus allowing each program to draw upon the others’ perspectives and expertise. This mix supports the ability to integrate diverse theoretical and technical knowledge in speculative design work while emphasizing critical thinking and making. Students and faculty are engaged in the design of con temporary experimental architectural projects and the integration of academically rigorous seminar courses in history and theory, computer media, and technology. The Graduate Architecture programs have a diverse faculty of distinguished educators and practicing archi tects, excellent facilities, and trans-disciplinary connec tions with the well-known art and design departments of Pratt Institute. Distinguished visitors present their work to graduate students on a regular basis in research forums, guest studios, and seminars. Faculty and students in both programs come from national and inter national backgrounds. The Graduate Architecture programs at Pratt Institute’s School of Architecture contribute to the progressive design environment for advanced architectural research located in New York City. The school’s New York City location provides immediate and frequent access to an extensive range of creative opportunities. The international study abroad programs extend the investigation of the city to Rome and Istanbul with concentrated seminars looking at both cities and their unique contributions to architecture and urbanity. Graduate Architecture and Urban Design offers two summer intensive International Study programs. One program goes to Europe, most recently Rome, and the other to Central America or Asia, most recently Cuba.

Architecture is a cultural act. Both the first-professional and post-professional programs seek to formulate a contemporary approach to architecture that is “eco logical” in the sense that it provides collective exchanges that are both trans-disciplinary and trans-categorical. This ecological approach encourages feedback, theoretical studies, and exposure to myriad other categories and disciplines that are newly emerging in contemporary culture. It also helps students develop relationships with industry, manufacturing, and political agencies. This approach seeks to intensify heterogeneous interests and agencies. In addition, the programs seek architectural innovations in both theory and practice of architecture and the interconnected phenomena out of which the discipline emerges. The Graduate Architecture program offers two degrees: Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) (first-professional), and Master of Science (M.S.) in Architecture (post-professional). Master of Architecture (First-Professional) The Master of Architecture, a first-professional degree, is a NAAB accredited 84-credit, three-year program that maintains a mission to train students as leaders in the professional practice of architecture with substantive methods of design and inquiry. The program is intended for students holding a four-year undergraduate, nonprofessonal degree in any field. Applicants with four-year, B.Sc. in Architecture or B.Sc. Eng. in Architecture may qualify for advanced standing. This program aims to establish a student’s professional education with new forms of thinking and practice and to help students develop lifelong relationships to their respective ﬁelds. Core design studios and seminars in history and theory, computer media, and building technologies in the first three semesters prepare students for the comprehensive architecture project in the fourth semester. This combined design and integrated building systems course integrates all related disciplines into the single project. The final two semesters are dedicated to advanced-option studios and seminars where students can explore a range of options within all four areas of the curriculum. Master of Science, Architecture (Post-Professional) The 36-credit, three-semester (summer, fall, spring) post-professional program aims to expand a student’s previously established professional education into new forms of thinking and practice. Open to students holding a five-year (B. Arch.) or equivalent (M.Arch.) degree in architecture, the program helps students develop a lifelong relationship to their specific interests in architecture. All students are exposed to relevant issues through rigorous

history and theory electives, lectures by prominent scholars, computer technology courses emphasizing critical thinking, and studios requiring integration of theoretical and technical knowledge. The program begins with an intensive summer semester concentrating in design, visualization and fabrication media, and theory; andÂ continues in the second semester with students selecting specific concentrations in areas of digital media and fabrication. The culmination of the program is aÂ research and design thesis project in which students develop specialized approaches to contemporary architecture within year-long themes.

Urban Design

Chair David Erdman Assistant Chair Philip Parker Coordinator David Ruy Assistants to the Chair Erin Murphy Gloria Nyaega

The Graduate Architecture and Urban Design program, offered on the Brooklyn campus, is a unique threesemester program for students who have already comp leted a professional degree in architecture. Preparing students to take leadership positions in the 21st century, the program takes into consideration the most urgent questions confronting the design of cities today. Guided by leading design professionals and scholars, students develop powerful contemporary design tech niques and a sophisticated conceptual outlook in order to advance new strategies and new possibilities. As of 2010, for the first time in human history, the majority of the global population now lives in cities. As noted by the World Health Organization, seven out of 10 people will be living in cities by the year 2050. Given the astonishing scale at which urbanization is taking place today, how we are designing our cities is becoming synonymous with how we are designing civilization itself. Mirroring the complexity of the contemporary situation, the program is itself highly international. From all corners of the world, students converge on this program in New York City, a city that remains one of the great laboratories for urban thought and innovation. Intensive and ambitious in its scope, the program is structured around a single urban design project that is continuously developed by each student across three studio semesters. Each studio semester has a specific focus that is supplemented by advanced seminar topics in histories of urban design, urban planning and zoning policies, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and digital design technologies. Recently, the program continued its speculative investigation of producing new land masses within the New York City estuary. Students examined the spectacular and problematic opportunities that come with creating new land where none existed before. The geo-engineering scenarios considered how this problem might articulate a new kind of architectural ground leading to new urban typologies. Projects developed extensions of this premise into new real estate economies, new infrastructures, new zoning logics, and perhaps most importantly, new experiences. Examining as a precedent the astonishingly artificial geology of New York City itself, students were asked to consider the profound and paradoxical coherence of a city that is always changing.

Graduate Center for Planning and Development

The Graduate Center for Planning and Development (GCPD) is an alliance of six programs with a shared value placed on urban sustainability—defined by the “triple bottom line” of environment, equity, and economy. The six graduate Master of Science programs are: ll City and Regional Planning ll Sustainable Environmental Systems ll Historic Preservation ll Urban Placemaking and Management ll Facilities Management ll Real Estate Practice Each of the six graduate programs maintains its inde pendence, degree, and depth of study. Yet with the advice of coordinators and department chairs, students can move among the six programs, with the further option to follow set tracks for specialized or multifaceted studies. Studios bring together students from all six graduate programs for interdisciplinary teamwork. GCPD also offers linkages to the undergraduate Construction Management program, with the opportunity to focus on real estate development; Brooklyn Law School, with the opportunity to earn a joint master’s/Juris Doctor; and the Pratt Center for Community Development, with the opportunity to combine study and advocacy. The primary mission of the GCPD is to provide a professionally oriented education to a student body whose members have diverse cultural, educational, and profes sional backgrounds. The GCPD welcomes applicants with undergraduate degrees in a wide range of disciplines. In the application process, the GCPD values creativity, civic engagement, and depth of experience, in addition to intellectual capacity.

Urbanism In this century, as in the last, the major human force on our planet is migration to metropolitan areas, while the major challenge of the present and future is addressing global warming. Prior city-planning values of aesthetics (as per the City Beautiful movement of the late 19th century) and new technology (as per the City Efficient movement of the mid-20th century) must now be augmented with a new City Sustainable movement. The GCPD is especially committed to realizing this paradigm on the communitywide as well as the citywide basis. Environmental Sustainability The Sustainable Environmental Systems program is entirely devoted to urban environmental policy, science, and design. “Green development” and LEED courses augment the Facilities Management program curriculum. The Historic

Preservation program is already “greened,” as the most sustainable action is to preserve and reuse. Social Equity and Economic Viability True sustainability considers factors such as social justice and financial realities. Advocacy and participatory planning are core principles, further propelled by the Livable Cities and Environmental Justice movements. Sustainability is not just a new set of technologies and standards, it is also a value system. Professionalism and Internships Relevant employment and internships are an important component of the GCPD’s educational approach. Students entering with work in a relevant field may earn credits through work experience/portfolio credit. Unpaid and paid internships are available. The resulting variety of profes sional experiences enriches seminar discussions and studio teamwork, provides students with a wealth of contacts in the field, and strengthens their job qualifications. Impact Through internships, partnerships, studios, demonstra tions of professional competence, and directed research, students have ample opportunity to work on real-world and real-time issues. Successes are illustrated in this catalog and in the GCPD newsletter. (Check the websites for each program.) New York’s history, diversity, and international character offer a rich training ground for planners, preservationists, developers, and sustainability practitioners. Students graduate equipped with the technical knowhow, collaborative abilities, and critical-thinking skills necessary to pursue professional careers and plan for environmental and social justice in urban places. Alumni play leading roles in a broad spectrum of jobs in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. GCPD courses are offered in the evenings, except for the Historic Preservation program’s courses, which are concentrated on two weekdays and evenings. This scheduling affords students maximum flexibility to work or intern, and affords the GCPD the ability to tap as faculty the region’s most accomplished professionals. These include the founders of community organizations, executives in development firms, New York City commis sioners, political leaders, and more. The Pratt Center The GCPD collaborates closely with the Pratt Center for Community Development (www.prattcenter.net)—one of the nation’s foremost university-based research and

Programs for Sustainable Planning and Development

technical assistance organizations in the service of disadvantaged communities. A number of courses relate to Pratt Center projects, many students intern at the Pratt Center, Pratt Center senior staff teach in the GCPD, and other faculty work closely with the Pratt Center on research and advocacy efforts. Pratt Center’s services include: ll Visioning to identify community needs and workable strategies. ll Testimony and events to inform groups and officials about community challenges and opportunities. ll Research, recommendations for action, and advocacy to advance community plans. ll Neighborhood and regional coalitions to advance specific policy recommendations. The GCPD also enjoys a relationship with the New York City Environmental Justice Alliance (NYC-EJA) and with Project for Public Spaces (PPS). NYC-EJA is the city’s leading advocate for sustainability and resiliency for poor and working-class neighborhoods of color. PPS is the nation’s leading proponent of placemaking, traffic calming, public markets, and more, with projects all around the world. Other organizations with opportunities for intern ship placements include the New York City Economic Development Corporation and other city agencies, the New York Landmarks Conservancy and other civic organizations, environmental groups, and communitybased organizations throughout New York City. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) With the graduate Communications Design program, the GCPD founded SAVI, the Spatial Analysis and Visualization Initiative. SAVI supports GCPD studios and research with depth in GIS analysis and with an added focus on how best to represent data, e.g., infographics. SAVI is also a resource for community and civic organizations, and in 2014 launched a certificate degree in GIS and data visualization. Global Practice The GCPD is responding to the challenges of the “global village” with courses that run partly or entirely abroad. These courses are as much about students learning global innovations and practices as about providing opport unities for students to study in foreign places. For example, Pratt students have traveled to Brazil to consider innova tive approaches to affordable housing, studied climate change infastructure with Dutch students and experts, and fleshed out the community details of a regional sus tainability plan for Goa with Indian students.

Joint Degree in Law Pratt Institute and Brooklyn Law School (BLS) have created an open door allowing Pratt students to take selected courses at BLS, and vice versa. Pratt and BLS also sponsor a program leading to the degrees of Master of Science in City and Regional Planning and Juris Doctor (J.D.). Students can also participate in BLS’s Community Development Clinic, which represents community development corporations, cultural institutions, and affordable housing providers that serve underrepresented communities. The joint degrees can be earned in four to five years of full-time study, which takes less time and costs less than pursuing the two degrees independently. Students must apply and be accepted to both schools indepen dently. Prospective law students must take the LSAT. The joint degree can be pursued simultaneously or sequentially, so long as 15 or more credits of the Pratt master’s degree are completed after matriculation at BLS.

Urban Placemaking and Management

Academic Coordinator David Burney dburney@pratt.edu Assistant to the Chair Adia Ware aware@pratt.edu Office Tel: 718.399.4340 www.pratt.edu/pspd

In the past 15 to 20 years, there has been a paradigm shift in thinking about planning and urban design, from a primary focus on buildings to a focus on the spaces between buildings—“public space.” Rather than allowing these spaces to be formed as an afterthought of building design, “placemaking” sees the creation of successful public spaces as the starting point, which in turn dictates the siting and design of other components of the urban fabric. The Master of Science (M.S.) in Urban Placemaking and Management (UPM) prepares professionals for this rapidly growing field. Students learn to create successful, vibrant, equitable, and economically viable public spaces using a bottom-up, community-driven, people-centric approach. The program is for students with professionally oriented undergraduate education, professional degrees, or professional experience in architecture, engineering, environmental or landscape design, urban planning, and related studies. Students are immersed in the core skills of analysis, conceptual design, and management of the public realm in cities. The 40-credit program equips students to qualify for employment in a range of institutional, governmental, non‑profit, and private-sector settings. Students gain a broad theoretical knowledge of the historical, political, and social frameworks with which to conceptualize the public realm, while developing skills to analyze urban space and understand the relationship of public space to public policy and private development. Through studios and internships, students further gain practical understanding of the planning and design of public space, including management and the integration of the principles of sustainability into public space development. The core knowledge and skills base of placemaking as a discipline are delivered over four semesters through a combination of lectures, seminars, case studies, and studio-based exercises. Students pursue a curriculum of study structured by four academic knowledge streams: design and infrastructure, economics, planning and policy, and management. The program offers students the flexibility to develop advanced knowledge and skills through electives in three areas of focus, each corresponding to an area of employment for placemakers: ll Community-Based Design ll Parks, Open Space, and Green Infrastructure ll Transportation and Main Street Management Graduates are equipped to effectively analyze, manage, and influence the complex process of public-realm design and management.

Internships Students have the opportunity to gain work experience in the field at some of the leading placemaking organizations in New York City. Research Fellowships The program provides a few students with the opport unity to do independent research focusing on placemaking. Past fellowship topics included public art and creative placemaking, European placemaking, architecture and place-based theory, place and identity, secret spaces, and placemaking in Southeast Asia. Studio Culture The program strengthens students’ skills through two studios where students work individually and in teams. The studios tackle real placemaking challenges and connect students with a project for a business improvement district, community-based group, or another organization. Community-Based Design Concentration Drawing on Pratt Institute’s rich history in communitybased planning, the Community-Based Design concent ration approaches placemaking from the ground up to study how the built environment affects the health, well-being, and expression of its residents. Classes include Active Design, Public History, and Art and Social Change. Parks, Open Space, and Green Infrastructure Concentration Parks, plazas, and open spaces are key components of placemaking as both social spaces and urban connections to nature. In the Parks, Open Space, and Green Infra structure concentration, students focus on developing, monitoring, and managing these spaces through inno vative environmental systems methods. Classes include Open Space and Parks, Managing Coastal Resources, Productive and Performative Landscapes, and Sustainable Urban Agriculture. Transportation and Main Street Management Concentration Transit and main streets are the infrastructural foundation of placemaking. In the Transportation and Main Street Management concentration, students focus on developing and revitalizing places around public and alternative transportation hubs and main streets. Classes include Pedestrian and Bicycle Planning, Transit Equity, Downtown Economic Development, Main Street Revitalization, and Public Security: Design and Debates.

City and Regional Planning

Since its inception 50 years ago, the City and Regional Planning program, offered at the School of Architecture on the Brooklyn campus, has remained true to its emphasis on an education that stresses practice over theory, participatory planning over top‑down policymaking, and advocacy over technocracy. Pratt’s accredited Master of Science in City and Regional Planning requires 60 credits. The schedule of classes allows students to enter in fall or spring, and complete their studies in two or two-and-a-half years. To promote specialized or interdisciplinary study, half of the credits are in elective seminars and studios. While by no means required to do so, students can focus on one of six particular professional specializations, corresponding to the program’s areas of strength. Internships Virtually every student is assured an opportunity to take an internship, and four out of five students do so. Studio Culture All of the advanced planning studios are interdisciplinary, drawing students from other Graduate Center for Planning and the Environment (GCPE) programs: Sustainable Environmental Systems, Facilities Management, Historic Preservation, Urban Placemaking and Management, and Real Estate Practice. The studios tackle real planning challenges, often in connection with a project from the Pratt Center for Community Development or another advocacy organization.

Community Development and Participatory Planning Students focus on planning with communities through asset-based approaches to strengthen healthy places and revitalize distressed ones. They learn how to build equity, regulate land use with neighborhood quality of life in mind, develop affordable housing, strengthen businesses and retain jobs, and enhance urban environments through design and amenities. The program’s alliance with the Pratt Center for Community Development provides the under pinning for this specialization. For more information, visit www.prattcenter.net. Physical Planning Students develop an understanding of the interplay among physical, social, regulatory, cultural, and economic considerations in creating viable physical patterns for diverse contexts—from large-scale development to neighborhoods and cities. The emphasis is on the experi ence of place and on economic and social vitality rather than on pure design or a particular design ideology.

Placemaking and Alternative Transportation In the past 10 years there has been a paradigm shift in thinking about urbanism, from a primary focus on buildings to one on the spaces between buildings and public space. Students learn to create and manage successful, vibrant, and equitable public spaces from a bottom-up, people-centric approach. (Refer to the Urban Placemaking and Management program for additional electives.) Sustainability and Resiliency In considering urban air, water, waste, and brownfield problems and best practices, students learn how to promote sustainable communities and environmental justice. (Refer to the Sustainable Environmental Systems program for additional electives.) Preservation Planning Students learn to integrate historic preservation in the wider context of urbanism, real estate development, and sustainability. The National Council for Preservation Education recognizes the Preservation Planning special ization. (Refer to the Historic Preservation program for additional electives.) Public-Purpose Real Estate Development Students can gain the full range of knowledge associated with expertise in real estate development, but with an emphasis on green development, affordable housing, adaptive reuse, and public/private partnerships. (Refer to the Real Estate program for additional electives). Joint Degree in Law Pratt Institute and Brooklyn Law School sponsor a pro gram leading to the degrees of Master of Science in City and Regional Planning and Juris Doctor (J.D.).

The Master of Science in Sustainable Environmental Systems is one of the nation’s most innovative, interdisc iplinary, systems-based sustainability programs. The 40-credit Master of Science in Sustainable Environmental Systems (SES), offered in the evenings at Pratt’s School of Architecture on the Brooklyn campus, is designed to meet today’s increasing demand for environmental professionals. Students learn the interdisciplinary skills needed to assess contemporary environmental issues; catalyze innovative environmental problem-solving; uphold environmental and social justice; and engage diverse stakeholders in designing and developing sustainable plans, policies, and communities. Graduates are prepared to take on a range of roles as environmental designers, policy analysts, sustainability consultants, low-impact developers, researchers, and advocates, collaborating with environmental scientists, policymakers, and communities. The Sustainable Environmental Systems program is unique in its combination of science, design, and policy. By uniting a foundation of theoretical and technical core courses with innovative mini-courses, the program offers a uniquely comprehensive curriculum that fosters exposure to cutting-edge practicing professionals. The program encourages students to closely examine the relationships between the environment, policy, and systems design. The Sustainable Environmental Systems program is unique in its emphasis on the urban environment. As integral members of the Graduate Center for Planning and Development (GCPD), students are exposed to land use, transportation, preservation, development, and economic planning strategies. Through this exploration, students understand the complexities of the urban context and can analyze global, federal, state, and local policies accordingly. Students learn the skills needed to build and preserve sustainable urban communities. Through the Recovery, Adaptation, Mitigation and Planning initiative (RAMP), the SES program has formed an interdisciplinary suite of studio courses and workshops in which students and faculty members from the School of Architecture work with local community leaders from the region’s most vulnerable coastal communities. The collaborative approach of RAMP enables focused interdisciplinary study and implementation of resiliency strategies for sustainable coastal communities. The Sustainable Environmental Systems program welcomes students with a variety of undergraduate degrees, recognizing that sustainability is most effective when integrating a number of disciplines. Students entering the program with relevant professional expe rience, or with a Bachelor of Architecture or a B.S./B.E.

in civil engineering or environmental science, may receive up to 10 credits of advanced standing. Professional Practice Students learn from each other as well as from the faculty. Most students have had (or in the course of study will gain) work experience in the environmental area or related fields—as architects, engineers, community organizers, and entrepreneurs. As the degree is particularly rewarding for those seeking professional development, many students have existing professional experience.

the “least carbon footprint” approach is to preserve and reuse. ll Courses in two new programs—Urban Placemaking and Management and Real Estate Practice—allow SES students to explore these disciplines and further develop their areas of focus within the study of sustainable systems.

Internships Virtually every student is assured an internship with an organization, agency, or professional practice. In the past, interns have been placed with the Mayor’s Office of Long-Term Planning and Sustainability, Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance, New York Industrial Retention Network, and Pratt’s Center for Sustainable Design Strategies. Internship examples include modeling energyefficiency efforts in Bedford-Stuyvesant with the Pratt Center for Community Development, working with local businesses to develop sustainability plans, and working on LEED-certified projects. (Refer to the earlier section on the GCPD for details.) Design Build Working alongside professionals, and using New York City as a laboratory, students learn a sustainability concept and its implementation. This experience is reflected in our Green Infrastructure Design Build studio as well as our Green Infrastructure fellowships. Multidisciplinary Experience Bringing cutting-edge New York City sustainability practi tioners into the classroom gives students access to an invaluable network as they enter the professional world. The Sustainable Environmental Systems program is integrated with other GCPD programs, with the option for extended study beyond the 40-credit Master of Science in SES, as follows: ll Courses in the City and Regional Planning program expose students to land use, transportation, and economic development planning strategies. Joint studios deal with sustainability plans for development sites, neighborhoods, and businesses. ll Courses in the Facilities Management program allow for a focus on green development and property management practices. ll Courses in the Historic Preservation program allow for a focus on livability and the recognition that often

Pratt’s Historic Preservation program prepares students for leadership in a rapidly changing preservation field. The 47-credit Master of Science in Historic Preser vation (HP), offered at Pratt’s School of Architecture on the Brooklyn campus, is designed to meet today’s increasing demand for preservation professionals. Students learn the interdisciplinary skills needed to assess contemp orary preservation issues and contribute greatly to an ever-expanding field. The Historic Preservation program aims to train pre servationists who are highly knowledgeable in the field, as well as critical enough to push the boundaries of the discipline. Rather than focusing on the preservation of the past, the program focuses on diverse strategies to manage change in the present. Preservation is a truly forwardlooking profession, fueled by the opportunity and the need to find creative solutions that protect cultural resources by ensuring their use and continuity through time. Pratt Institute’s M.S. degree in Historic Preservation offers a unique approach to preservation education, striving to go beyond the physical aspects of preservation in order to understand what role our discipline plays within a larger context of and sustainable practices. After an intense year of core courses that provide a solid foundation in the critical areas of historic preser vation practice, students are encouraged to develop their particular interests. They spend their second year on a thesis project and elective courses within their chosen area of focus, specializing in a particular aspect of urban preservation and built environment manage ment. We seek to help students develop their own passions and expertise while they are in school, so that they graduate with a body of knowledge that can inform and contribute to the profession. Upon the successful completion of their theses, students become qualified historic preservation practitioners with a focus that at once broadens their knowledge base and deepens their expertise—thus enhancing their skills and the range of work that they are equipped to handle as they enter this transdisciplinary field. In addition, students have the option to explore inter national studios and practice on offer from other programs. A required internship in the field of historic preservation rounds out the program and ensures that students leave Pratt with relevant real-world work experience, as well as a network of professionals in preservation. The academic areas of focus not only offer students the possibility of honing their knowledge and skills to prepare for a preservation career, but also enrich historic preservation as a discipline by broadening its reach and allowing for continuity and innovation.

There are three areas of focus within the program: Design, Conservation, and Sustainability; Historic Resource Management; and Community Preservation and Planning. We believe that these three areas cover many crucial aspects of preservation in order to better protect our historic resources while fostering innovation in the field. Design, Conservation, and Sustainability addresses the issues that arise during the process of designing a new structure in a historic context and offers skills and training in the conservation of historic structures. In addition, the focus area enables students to explore the nexus between historic preservation and environmental sustainability. Historic Resource Management addresses the issues surrounding the stewardship of historic buildings and sites, providing students with a deeper understanding of the theories and practices of historic building and site conservation, interpretation, and management. Community Preservation and Planning explores the relationship between urban planning and preservation practice, including the challenges of integrating placebased history into community planning efforts and managing change in historic neighborhoods. The Historic Preservation program resides within the Graduate Center for Planning and Development in the School of Architecture. GCPD’s mission is to create and sustain a learning community of students, faculty, and alumni that is characterized by innovative professional practice and that emphasizes planning and preservation approaches rooted in the principles of sustainability, equity, and public participation. The program takes a values-based approach to historic preservation. This means that rather than just looking at preservation through a curatorial lens, the program recognizes the need to take a more holistic approach. The values-based approach proposes that cultural issues are critical to the understanding and conservation of the built environment. Moreover, it establishes that social memory is a critical aspect of dealing with historical value, because it can help bridge spaces and times by focusing on the users and not just the objects.

Real Estate Practice

This 36-credit Master of Science program is designed to be completed in three full-time terms of study in the afternoons and evenings on the Pratt Manhattan Campus. The Real Estate Practice program supports and builds upon one of Pratt Institute’s core competencies: education in the design and planning of the built environment. Residing in the School of Architecture, the Real Estate Practice program complements existing School of Architecture programs in Facilities Management, Construction Management, Sustainable Environmental Systems, Historic Preservation, Urban Placemaking and Management, and City and Regional Planning. Mission Statement The mission of Pratt’s Real Estate Practice (REP) program is to educate and train students in the core discipline and skills of real estate practice. The goal of the program is to develop students who have the capacity to practice the business of real estate with a focus on public-private partnerships, as well as housing and urban development, with a commitment to achieving the triple bottom line benefitting society, the environment, and the economy. A key objective is to graduate students as real estate entrepreneurs who have the core skills to secure profes sional employment in the real estate business while supporting social inclusion, environmental sustainability, and commercial viability.

Program Focus The REP program prepares students for an employment environment that today demands flexibility on the part of real estate development practitioners and a rigorous understanding of the complexities of urban development. Whereas in the past real estate professionals typically worked in either the public or the private sector, career trajectories for professionals today vary widely as a result of changes in the development process. The increasing role of public-private partnerships means that real estate professionals interact with a much broader interdisciplinary team. In addition, the goals of sustainability—economic development, social equity, and environmental stewardship—are increasingly integrated into development planning. Similarly, achieving community-based development goals has become a facet of the development process. Real estate professionals today need the flexibility to practice across sectors while ensuring financial viability. The REP program prepares graduates to seek employ ment in the field by complementing one of the core competencies of Pratt Institute: education in the design and development of the built environment. The Pratt

School of Architecture is a key setting for educating future real estate development professionals because of the interdisciplinary character of its programs. Students in the REP program will gain in-depth understanding of the core knowledge areas of real estate development practiced across the country and will develop interdisc iplinary collaborative skills within the School of Archi tecture’s academic community.

estate transactions. The program will focus on real estate development within the framework of effective public-private partnerships.

The Curriculum The Pratt Master of Science (M.S.) in Real Estate Practice provides students with theoretical and practical knowledge and experience in the core disciplines of the real estate business, as follows:

Real Estate Finance Students will be immersed in the financial instruments available to develop and invest in real estate. They will gain a practical understanding of the connection between markets and trends in order to analyze the financial viability of real estate proposals. The program will focus on urban economics and public and private financing to develop and invest in housing and urban development.

ll Real Estate Development Students will obtain the fundamental skills to serve as developers and project managers in housing and urban development within public-private partnership structures. They will have a sound understanding of the development process and of how to manage an integrated, multidisci plinary process with multiple interests. The program will focus on the evolving field of sustainable development to achieve triple-bottom-line objectives.

Academic and Career Objectives of Program and Concentration Students will be able to apply the core disciplines in real estate to develop, invest, and finance housing and urban development projects. Students will have practical project management skills applicable to the real estate development process. Students will develop theoretical and practical knowledge of real estate practice.

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. The School of Art’s graduate programs are dedicated to the primacy of a professional standard and the transformative power of creativity. We educate leaders in the creative professions to identify, understand, and benefit from the challenges of a rapidly changing world. The School of Art is dedicated to developing creative leadership in a world that requires it. The School of Art’s innovative graduate programs bring together exceptional students who flourish in an environment that encourages autonomy and growth. An internationally recognized faculty known for its excellence in teaching leads the graduate programs. Faculty members work individually with students and in small seminar classes to maximize their graduate experience. The School of Art has two parallel objectives that guide every department. One is the emphasis on professional development, where students gain the techniques, skills, methodologies, and vocabulary required for success as productive artists, film makers, cultural leaders, educators, and therapists. The second objective—intertwined with the first—recognizes that this technical experience only takes root within a complex cultural context. Therefore, students in the School of Art also develop the critical judgment and historical perspective needed to become creative problem solvers and leaders in their respective professions.

The M.S. Initial, Advanced Certificate, and Professional 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 education theory, research 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 are proficient in their research skills and communications about contemporary art and design practices as they advocate for studio-based art and design programs in diverse learning contexts. Students practice teaching in Saturday Art School and in New York City’s public schools. Saturday Art School is a laboratory where learning how to teach and research ing issues of pedagogy are modeled upon artistic practice. Students test ideas, develop a personal teaching style, and explore research questions through participation and observation. Students thus get opportunities to work collaboratively with their peers, community members, and professionals in the field, while they learn to develop lessons and construct environments that promote critical inquiry and creative practice. A range of art practices is presented and explored, from traditional forms to contemporary multidisciplinary works. Our approach to art and design education is disting uished by a willingness to look to other disciplines for inspiration. In recent years, we have drawn upon the work of artists, educators, and scholars in diverse fields such as play and performance, museum education, and community art and design education. As reflective practitioners and researchers, students are prepared to work effectively in diverse cultural contexts and to apply interdisciplinary perspectives in a variety of educa tional settings.

Chair Mary McBride, Ph.D. Office Tel: 212.647.7560 acm@pratt.edu www.pratt.edu/ arts-cultural-management

The mission of the 42-credit Arts and Cultural Management (ACM) graduate program is to build on Pratt Institute’s international reputation for developing creative leaders. Our program aims to develop leaders who are able to use their creativity strategically to foster creative expression, build creative community, and shape a commerce of ideas and images in an increasingly challenged and mediated world. ACM prepares participants to lead and manage in an emerging cultural landscape that includes new challenges, new media, and new forms of cultural expression. Based in experiential learning, the program creates a collaborative learning community that sharpens critical thinking, deepens reflective practice, and develops strategic leadership skills. Located at Pratt’s Manhattan campus, the program encourages participants to consider their role in society and their respective communities as cultural arbiters and educators. This approach yields arts and cultural leaders who are equipped with the necessary theoretical, analytical, and practical skills to respond creatively to the changing cultural, economic, and social environments in which they work. The two-year Arts and Cultural Management Program, created to bridge the creative disciplines with the strategic disciplines, provides a leadership education more focused than an M.B.A. on the special needs of cultural leaders managing 21st-century creative enterprises across the boundaries of private, nonprofit, and government sectors. Our program objective is to develop reflective leaders who can collaborate to create sustainable strategic advantages using our Triple Bottom Line by Design plus Culture (TBLD+C) strategic framework. By expanding the coursework to include nonprofit management practices, public policy, and other contemporary issues, ACM stresses the importance of simultaneously developing business acumen and a sense of social responsibility. These goals are accomplished by: ll Strengthening each participant’s ability to deal with a wide range of critical artistic, institutional, and business problems in practical and theoretical terms. ll Increasing the individual’s ability to manage complex, cross-disciplinary, and competing problems and tensions that are inherent in arts and cultural business environments. ll Utilizing technology and new media to advance strategic goals. ll Providing practical skills for negotiating organizational and artistic conflicts. ll Broadening outlooks on the social, economic, and political climate and the role of arts and cultural institutions in society. ll Sharpening personal capacities for understanding and solving organizational and human relations problems.

ll Developing communications skills for the effective exchange of ideas and information. ll Stretching the individual’s capacities to anticipate and effectively manage change fueled by external forces. ll Developing the leadership capabilities of each participant. ll Sharing the ideas and experiences of a diverse group of promising arts and cultural managers. The ACM program prepares participants for rapidly shifting cultural, economic, and social environments and political contexts. It provides the skills necessary to lead and manage in a changing world and an increasingly challenged ecosystem. The ACM program provides participants with the opportunity to: ll Join a creative learning community of professionals with diverse expertise. ll Develop a strategic skill set that bridges public, for‑profit, and nonprofit sectors. ll Explore the role of art, culture, and meaning-making in shaping equity, economy, and ecology of place. ll Create and expand professional networks worldwide. ll Examine trends and global challenges. ll Use technology to advance dialogue and engagement. ll Refine communication, collaboration, and conflictmanagement skills. ll Lead the development of thriving cultures and creative economies. Leadership coaching is a key component of the Arts and Cultural Management program. It provides partici pants with an opportunity to reflect on their leadership style and identify strengths and stretch steps. Coaches work one-on-one and with participant teams and serve as catalysts for positive change and ongoing devel opment related to career needs. Coaches enable and support participants. They assist in conducting assessments, enabling participants to develop specific personal and professional development action plans, and enabling teams to deepen their skill in managing conflict and encouraging innovation. Our goal is to help you design and develop a life as a leader and manager of creative enterprise. Classes are offered on alternating weekends in Manhattan to accommodate working professionals and those who may wish to pursue full-time internships.

42 credits to complete the program and receive a Master of Professional Studies (M.P.S.) in Arts and Cultural Management. The program has five required semesters— fall, spring, summer, fall, spring. Each semester is divided into two terms and participants enroll in two courses per term, with the exception of semesters three and five. Courses are taken in order as listed in the program curriculum. Two five-day intensives—at the beginning and in the middle of the program—provide the opportunity for several brief, intensive courses, including behavioral simulation and negotiating modules. Coursework is concentrated in these sessions and moves at a fast pace. Class attendance is critical, since each alternating weekend of classes is one-tenth of the entire course. Students are required to complete the 42-credit hours of the program to graduate. Entrance Requirements We offer applicants from around the world an alternative to a traditional M.B.A. for those who value applied creativity. Our program connects creative thinking with strategic thinking and is designed for those who want to apply their creativity to lead and manage. Applicants should have an interest in designing cultural experiences, events, and programs that enrich, enliven, and engage. We are looking for applicants who want to be actively involved in designing futures and shaping prosperity using culture as an asset. The ideal candidate wants to use the creative and strategic arts to make a difference in our shared world and to build a work life that will enable that. The required statement of purpose should reflect the applicant’s personal vision of how this program fits in with his or her personal and professional goals, including how the applicant hopes to use the skills he or she acquires in this program. The statement should be no more than 500 words or two pages. In some cases, volunteer experience will be an acceptable demonstration of interest in the field. An interview (in person or by phone) with the program director is required for admission. For inter national students, a minimum Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score of 600 is required. Course enrollment is available to fully matriculated design management and arts and cultural management students only.

Established in 1970, Pratt’s Department of Creative Arts Therapy is one of the oldest graduate creative arts therapy training programs in the country. Pratt offers a Master of Professional Studies in Art Therapy and Creativity Development and a Master of Science in Dance/Movement Therapy. Students learn creative arts therapy skills as applied to a wide variety of patient populations, including psychiatric inpatient and outpatient, substance abuse, geriatric, special education, therapeutic nurseries, after-school programs, families, medical rehabilitation, child life, eating disorders, AIDS, the homeless, and traumatized populations, as well as work in prevention and wellness. At the end of their training, they are prepared for entry work in a broad continuum of settings, ranging from institutions to creative work in the community. Our students learn to combine personal artistry with clinical acumen through the integration of experiential, theoretical, and practical learning. Our goal is to help students be able to use a complex and open theoretical framework that makes it possible for them to respond to a multitude of clinical situations. They learn to use themselves in the most creative ways possible, while being grounded in developmental and diagnostic skills, and group and individual dynamics. Each student is encouraged to develop his or her own unique style, informed by an experiential process. The core of our teaching philosophy is the primacy of creative expression informed by psychological, develop mental, and relational theory as the path to integration and healing. Experiential learning and process orientation are the cornerstones of our curriculum. Every course includes some experiential components, and the depart ment maintains an environment that supports and encourages the students’ involvement in that process. Accordingly, we are committed to maintaining small class sizes, enhancing communication between students and faculty, and encouraging discussion of the learning process itself. One of the strongest elements of our program is the synthesis of the theoretical and the practical. Our program combines practicum/internship assignments with coursework from beginning to end, providing graduates with a firm grounding in the actual practice of art and dance/movement therapy upon graduation. Students attend two days of fieldwork/practicum/internship weekly. Art therapy students complete one practicum in each of their two years. Dance/movement therapy students complete 480 hours of fieldwork in their first year and a 700-hour internship with a second population in their second year. They receive weekly on-site supervision.

In addition, they engage in weekly group and bi-monthly individual supervision sessions with a member of our faculty. Because Pratt is located in a large urban center, there are a wide variety of practicum sites with a range of populations. Our internship coordinators assist students in finding appropriate clinical placements based on the learning needs of each individual student. There is richness to be gained from including both art therapy and dance/movement therapy students in the department. Students can learn about the nature of creative arts therapy in general and the particular strengths and limitations of their chosen modality. Though a majority of the courses are discipline specific, many of the classes combine art and dance therapy students so material is explored from both perspectives. Graduates receive discrete degrees in either art or dance therapy. Knowledge of research and professional writing skills are developed across the curriculum through written assignments required in every class and the completion of a thesis. Students are given the option of a range of research methods, including quantitative and qualitative. The latter may include a case study, a project implemented in the community, or descriptive methods investigating the experience of a phenomenon or therapeutic process. The American Art Therapy Association has approved the Art Therapy and Creativity Development degree. The Dance Therapy program is approved by the American Dance Therapy Association. Both programs are licensurequalifying and graduates automatically satisfy educational requirements for licensure in New York State. For those considering a career in art or dance therapy or who want a basic introduction, we offer the Spring Institute, which is a three-day set of workshops in various areas of creative arts therapy.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE Both the M.P.S. in Art Therapy and Creativity Develop ment and M.S. in Dance/Movement Therapy programs provide a synthesis of creative, aesthetic, and psycho therapeutic theory. Courses offer a thorough theoretical framework that is translated into personal and practical application through an experiential process. Artwork and/or movement is done in every course and is used to learn therapeutic skills. Students focus on a wide variety of populations and are required to work with a different population for each of the two years of fieldwork/ internship/practicum. Both programs are for students who want a broad body of skills, balanced with a strong theoretical framework.

Creative Arts Therapy

Academic Year/Low Residency Formats The Creative Arts Therapy program offers its degrees in two formats: The academic year format offers classes in a traditional manner, with classes in fall and spring semesters, for 15 weeks each semester. The low residency format is an innovative educational program based on a low residency adult learning model. The program is designed for those students who do not live near or are otherwise unable to engage in a traditional master’s degree format. Students in the academic year format are admitted for the fall semester only. Students in the low residency format are admitted for the spring semester only. See www.pratt.edu/apply for graduate requirements. Academic Year Format The cycle of classes is as follows: students take courses and fieldwork/practicum/internship from September through May for two consecutive years. Low Residency Format The cycle of classes is as follows: students take one class (9 days) in mid-March in Brooklyn. During the last week of June, they take another class (8 days), also in Brooklyn. During the first three weeks of July, students take courses (over three weeks) in New Hampshire. Students complete reading assignments before classes and then complete their papers after classes are over, giving them a chance to integrate class experience with readings and fieldwork/practicum/internship experience. Two years of fieldwork/internship (dance/movement therapy) or practicum (art therapy) are done from September through May following the first and second year of summer classes. Supervision is completed through weekly phone and Skype contact, as well as an active online forum that keep low residency students consistently in touch with Pratt faculty and one another. Housing is available on campus when courses are being held in New York. Courses in New Hampshire take place in Lincoln, in the White Mountains. Students rent resort condominiums at reasonable prices for the duration of their stay. The low residency format is offered to both art and dance/movement therapy students. The low residency program is not considered full-time. Therefore, international students will be ineligible for F-1 Visas. Admission Requirements (for all degrees) A bachelor’s degree is required for admission. For the Art Therapy program, a degree in art or psychology is preferred. For the Dance Therapy program, a degree

DANCE/ART THERAPY PRESENTATION

in dance or psychology is preferred.

Design Management

Chair Mary McBride, Ph.D. Office Tel: 212.647.7538 dm@pratt.edu www.pratt.edu/ design-management

Design education imparts many things, but it does not typically provide training in the leadership, team building, strategy, ﬁnance, marketing, and operations skills necessary to effectively lead a design department or to run a design business. Similarly, MBAs who are selected to lead design functions often lack the design experience necessary to guide design decisions or to lead creative people. The 42-credit Design Management program was created to bridge the disciplines of design and business management. Since its launch in 1995, the two-year program has been providing an executive education more focused than an M.B.A. on the special needs of design leaders managing firms or teams in creative industries. Design Management classes, offered at Pratt’s Manhattan campus, are aimed at and delivered by working professionals from the worlds of business and design. Participants come from a variety of disciplines, including industrial design, interior design, graphic design, fashion design, communications and information design, interactive media design, architecture, and engineering and materials science. The program will also consider applicants without design degrees who have an interest in design and creative enterprise leadership. The program’s academic calendar is modeled after successful executive M.B.A. programs. Its schedule of alternating weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) allows participants to carry their full job responsibilities while they study. The mission of the Design Management graduate program is to build on Pratt Institute’s international repu tation for developing creative leaders and to provide an educational experience that can help shape 21st-century strategic leaders who are able to bridge the disciplines of design and business to catalyze innovation. Our program objective is to develop reflective leaders who can collab orate to create sustainable strategic advantage and lead as if life matters using our Triple Bottom Line by Design plus Culture (TBLD+C) strategic framework. The program provides designers with the opportunity to: ll Join a learning community of professionals with diverse professional and cultural backgrounds. ll Develop a strong skill set in the discipline of business and the management of design. ll Explore emerging trends and draw from new ideas converging across design disciplines. ll Learn to identify and manage critical business challenges strategically. ll Practice using Triple Bottom Line by Design plus Culture (TBLD+C) to create strategic and sustainable advantage and social innovation.

ll Analyze key global, social, economic, environmental, technological, and political challenges. ll Meet the challenge of management in team-based organizations. ll Develop leadership capabilities. ll Refine communication, negotiation, and conflict management skills. ll Learn techniques for leading and managing innovation. ll Use technology to aid design in creating advantage. ll Sharpen skills in operations and project management, finance, and budgeting. ll Apply strategic thinking to marketing, new product development, and brand management. ll Create and extend professional networks worldwide. Leadership coaching is a key component of the Design Management program. It provides participants with an opportunity to reflect on their leadership style and identify strengths and stretch steps. Coaches work one-on-one and with participant teams and serve as catalysts for positive change and ongoing development related to career needs. Coaches enable and support participants. They assist in conducting assessments, enabling partici pants to develop specific personal and professional development action plans, and enabling teams to deepen their skills in managing conflict and encouraging innovation. Graduates are prepared for leadership roles in strategic design and strategic management. They are able to use design to create sustainable strategic advantage and social innovation and to shape the way business is designed worldwide.

in each class, which many participants in executive programs consider especially valuable. The program has five required semesters—fall, spring, summer, fall, spring. Each semester is divided into two terms and participants enroll in two courses per term, with the exception of semesters four and five. Courses are taken in order as listed in the program curriculum. Participants are required to complete 42 credit hours in order to receive the accredited academic degree Master of Professional Studies (M.P.S.) in Design Management. Admissions Requirements Design Management program applicants should ideally have an undergraduate degree in one of the design disciplines and a minimum of three years’ professional experience prior to admission. Qualified applicants without design degrees will also be considered. All applicants must follow the standard rules for admission to a graduate program at Pratt and meet those requirements. See www.pratt.edu/apply. Course enrollment is available to fully matriculated design management and arts and cultural management students only.

The Program’s Structure The Design Management program curriculum is designed to develop strategic management skills in five areas related to design management: operations management, financial management, marketing management, organization and human resource management, and management of innovation and change. Courses are relevant and offer active learning experiences that provide participants with an integrated focus on the role of design in the creation and management of strategic and sustainable advantage and social innovation. Offered at Pratt’s West 14th Street campus in Manhattan, classes meet every other weekend for two full days. In addition, students attend class for a full week each at the beginning and in the middle of the program. This integrative experience provides the opportunity for several brief, intensive courses, including behavioral simulation and negotiating modules. These weeks allow students to establish and maintain relationships with other students

Pratt Institute’s M.F.A. program in Fine Arts provides an advanced education for artists supported by a distinguish ed faculty and exceptional facilities. The program has been recognized for its excellence by both USA Today, which rated Pratt as the number one Art and Design School for Fine Art, and by a U.S. News & World Report that ranked Pratt among the top 15 of over 200 Fine Arts M.F.A. programs in the nation. Located at the center of New York City’s thriving art worlds, Pratt’s Fine Arts M.F.A. program immerses students in the diverse cultures of contemporary art-making. The curriculum is both rigorous and flexible, offering wide latitude for exploration while fostering critical perspect ives and a deeper understanding of the histories, issues, and cultural contexts that inform art practices today. Pratt’s M.F.A. degree is in Fine Arts rather than in a specific medium or discipline. Though many students remain committed to the area of interest they chose when they entered the program—whether painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, or integrated practices —they are free to explore other forms and approaches as their work leads. Faculty and students build close relationships through structured studio visits, seminars, and informal conversations and these relation ships create a vital community and support network that endures after graduation. Pratt’s graduate fine arts facilities are outstanding. Students have individual studios for both years of the degree program. These are located in the Pfizer Building, a renovated industrial building that also houses fabri cation shops, temporary exhibition spaces, and seminar rooms. Campus facilities include a fully equipped wood shop, metal shop, print shop, ceramics studios, dark rooms, a digital output lab with high-resolution scanners and printers, as well as dedicated campus galleries. There are many opportunities to show work in a variety of traditional and non-traditional spaces and students are encouraged to curate their own temporary exhibitions. In the fall, M.F.A. students host open studios for the public, and in the spring, second-year students mount individual thesis exhibitions that are also open to the public. In addition to a regular schedule of studio visits by faculty members, the department’s Visiting Artists Lecture Series (VALS) brings internationally renowned artists to campus to give public lectures and have individual studio visits with graduate students. The Pratt Artists League (PAL), the graduate student club, invites visiting artists and critics for studio visits, and organizes open studios as well as other student-generated programming and exhibi tions, including a curated group exhibition for graduating students at a professional art space.

Pratt’s faculty members in the Fine Arts program are distinguished by their achievements and exhibiting inter nationally, as well as receiving major awards from the Guggenheim Foundation, National Endowment for the Arts, Tiffany Foundation, Joan Mitchell Foundation, Skowhegan, Pollock-Krasner Foundation, Creative Capital, and Art Matters. Pratt’s graduate students in Fine Arts come from around the world and are selected for their promise and readiness for the intensive, self-directed experience of graduate study. THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The Fine Arts M.F.A. program at Pratt Institute offers five areas of emphasis: painting and drawing, printmaking, photography, sculpture, and integrated practices (including forms of installation, time-based art, public and activist practices, and performance art). First-year students complete required courses in a primary area of emphasis, as well as broadly required courses in contemporary critical studies and art history. During the second year, students focus on their thesis work under the guidance of their chosen thesis faculty, culminating in a public solo exhibition and written thesis statement that is archived in the Pratt Libraries. In addition to required courses, students have 21 credits of open electives that may be used for interdisc iplinary, studio, or technical courses, or internships that support their interests and work. A minimum of 60 credits and four semesters of study are required for the M.F.A. degree. The time and number of credits to complete the degree may not be reduced but may be extended if needed. Admissions Requirements Applicants for admission to the M.F.A. degree program in Fine Arts must have an undergraduate degree from an accredited U.S. college, university, or art/design school, or the equivalent degree from a recognized inter national institution. It is not required that applicants have majored in studio art as undergraduates, only that they demonstrate the maturity, preparation, and readiness for the intensity and challenges of graduate study. International Applicants International applicants must have a minimum Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score of 80 to be considered for admission. As much of the studio educa tional experience takes place through discussion, it is important that students have satisfactory English comp rehension and speaking skills.

Application Guidelines Applications to the Fine Arts M.F.A. program should be submitted by January 5. Applications will not be reviewed until all required documentation is received. Applicants who advance from the initial stage of application review will be asked to schedule a Skype interview. Most applicants will be notified of their final admission status by April 1. The M.F.A. Admissions Committee is looking for work that demonstrates the applicant’s aesthetic and conceptual development and potential for successful growth over the two years of the program.

The School of Design is home to the most comprehensive design education available, supported by a distinguished faculty and exceptional facilities. Two major objectives guide every program. The first is an emphasis on professional skills development. Students gain the techniques, skills, methodologies, and vocabulary required to succeed as productive designers and scholars. The second objective—imperative, as acquiring professional expertise is not simply based in technical training—is development of the critical judgment and historical perspective that students need to become innovative problem solvers. The School of Design offers graduate degree programs in communications design, industrial design, interior design, and package design. Exceptional technical and studio resources support all programs. Pratt’s distinguished programs in the School of Art and the School of Architecture also enrich the School of Design programs. The faculty consists of professional artists, designers, 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 internationally. 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. Our graduate programs provide students with the opportunity to develop and refine their design process, design voice, and creative skills, leading to professional competence and leadership that contribute to the growing body of design knowledge. Graduate education at Pratt is conceptual and aspirational while being firmly grounded in craft and making. Critical inquiry and research skills are developed through projects in and around the city of New York. It is in this unique and diverse cultural context that the school’s disciplines are taught. The campus is located in Brooklyn, the city’s epicenter of design and culture, providing inspiration and the opportunity to learn from, and interact with, the multitude of creatives who make this borough their home.

Pratt Institute’s graduate Communications Design program has been educating graphic and package design ers for more than 40 years. In a survey of 10,000 design professionals by Graphic Design USA magazine, the Pratt program is recognized as one of the five most influential schools in the field over the past 50 years and one of the top five schools today. The program is ranked in the top 12 of over 200 graduate design programs in the nation, as reported in U.S. News & World Report rankings. Pratt offers the Master of Fine Arts (M.F.A.) degree in Communications Design and the Master of Science (M.S.) degree in Package Design. Our M.F.A. in Communications Design, a 62-credit graduate program, emphasizes full-time studio practice in communications design (print and digital media, artifacts, information, environments, systems). The components of the M.F.A. program focus on studio practice, research and scholarship, design teaching methodologies, and studies of visual media, including history, praxis and theory, critical and creative analysis, aesthetics, as well as other related humanities and social sciences. Our M.S. in Package Design, a 48-credit graduate program, emphasizes full-time studio practice in package design (typography, branding, structural packaging, fragrance packaging, sustainability) and offers a broadly based curriculum centered on the decision-making process for new product/package development, featuring courses in package design, brand development, visual communications, digital technology, marketing, and form. The department is located on Pratt’s main campus in Brooklyn, New York, in the Design Center, a building devoted to its School of Design programs, both under graduate and graduate. The department’s faculty includes highly regarded, award-winning professional designers, authors, and marketing and media specialists. The faculty members serve as important professional contacts for the students—several have written pivotal design books and articles, and many have been honored with design awards from prestigious arts and design organizations. With access to world-famous design firms—and through the department’s internship opportunities and profes sional faculty—students have the opportunity to talk and work with some of the best designers in the country. As a result, many students secure industry positions even before graduation. A diverse body of students from different professional, educational, and cultural backgrounds—more than 28 countries are represented—come to Pratt to further their careers in the design industry, begin a journey toward becoming a design educator, or alter a career course. Our graduate programs provide students the opportunity

113

to develop and refine their design process, design voice, and creative skills, leading to professional competence and leadership. M.F.A IN COMMUNICATIONS DESIGN Design plays a central and formative role in shaping communities, technology, and business. Never before have designers been expected to cultivate such a diverse set of skills and such broad knowledge. Our M.F.A. program prepares individuals to pursue design with passion and cultural relevance. Our distinctive program emphasizes design as a means for communicating meaningful messages, organizing information, creating compelling user experiences, and effecting social change. We believe that the most intriguing and successful designers are cultural innovators who use media to inform, persuade, and entertain. Our graduates develop voices as authors and entrepreneurs engaged in identifying and solving design problems within cross-disciplinary environments. We approach design as an agent of change —a strategy for transforming behaviors of individuals in desirable and sustainable ways. The program provides a framework for both profes sional practice and academic careers, while emphasizing full-time studio practice in graphic design—communi cations, identities, objects, environments, and systems. Graduates enter the professional world with a confident design voice and an outstanding body of work, prepared to become innovative leaders in communications design areas—i.e., print and digital media, typography, identity systems and branding, design strategy, social media and interaction design, motion design, environ mental design, data visualization, information design, and user experience design. The M.F.A. in Communications Design is a full-time program with classes offered during the day as well as some evenings for the convenience of students. A minimum of 62 credits, completed within two years of study, is required for the M.F.A. in Communications Design degree. Students accepted typically hold undergraduate degrees in graphic design or related design fields, such as industrial and interior design, architecture, fine arts, and media arts. We also welcome applicants from non-design fields including communications and journalism, business, liberal arts, and the sciences. Up to six credits of qualifying courses may be required for applicants who do not meet all entrance standards but whose applications indicate a strong aptitude for graduate study. A portfolio review is required for admission. The M.F.A. in Communications Design program strives to prepare individuals to be confident and mature

Communications Design

independent designers who will contribute to the expansion of the field; are skilled in the effective and appropriate use of technology; become leaders in the communications design profession; and are innovators in design pedagogy, research, and publication. Learning outcomes of the M.F.A. Communications Design degree: ll The ability to identify a problem (problem-seeking) and apply design process and research methodology toward finding a solution ll Advanced professional competence, demonstrating depth of knowledge and achievement, in a well developed, defendable, and significant body of work ll The ability to demonstrate knowledge of necessary theory and practice and the desire for a leadership position in the professional and academic worlds ll Advanced capabilities with technologies, demonstrated in the creation, dissemination, presentation, docu mentation, and preservation of work M.S. IN PACKAGE DESIGN The M.S. in Package Design, a degree first offered in 1966, educates students from diverse cultural, professional, and educational backgrounds in design thinking, technical skills, collaborative abilities, academic knowledge, and managerial competence. While focusing on creative problem-solving, the curriculum is industry-oriented. Graduates enter the professional world with an outstanding body of work, prepared to become innovative leaders in the field of package design. The M.S. in Package Design is an initial master’s degree that offers students structured courses on the decision-making process for new product and package development, featuring direction in package design, typography, brand development, marketing, structural packaging, packaging technology, fragrance packaging, and the business aspects of the package industry. The M.S. in Package Design is a full-time program with classes offered during the day as well as some evenings for the convenience of students. A minimum of 48 credits, completed within two years of study, is required for the M.S. Package Design degree. Students accepted typically hold undergraduate degrees in graphic design or related design fields, such as industrial and interior design, architecture, fine arts, and media arts. We also welcome applicants from non-design fields including communi cations and journalism, business, liberal arts, and the sciences.

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 distinctions among 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 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 M.I.D. program is set to prepare students to become industry leaders capable of tackling the complexity of design problems in the 21st century. Whether working in corporations or acting as entrepreneurs, students will be able to create products, systems, and environments that help to innovate and improve everyday objects and situations. The M.I.D. program welcomes students without previous professional training in industrial design. Students come from the fields of art, architecture, or interior design, and often with degrees in business, engineering, law, or sociology. Industrial design graduate students are typically looking to deepen their knowledge and creative outlook. We select a diverse group from an international pool of students and encourage them to exploit their previous professional pursuits in this new context. In the process, students gain a solid understanding of design fundamentals, from aesthetic values of three-dimensional form to critical design thinking. In accordance with national accreditation standards, we structure our program to address design complexity, innovation, technology, and sustainable future planning, all in an interconnected global context. M.I.D. faculty members are professional educators and designers; many of them are principals of their own successful businesses and recipients of prestigious industry awards. Throughout 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. In 2015, Pratt’s graduate program in Industrial Design was ranked in the top five international programs by both U.S. News & World Report, and QS World University Ranking. The Program’s Structure The M.I.D. degree is a six-semester, 60-credit program for all students, regardless of previous background, to promote collegiality and cohesion in each incoming group of graduate students. This cohesion is essential to a pro gram that creates a learning environment where “learning from one another” and teamwork happen, and where the richness of the program is enhanced by a strong sense of community. While our M.I.D. program is a generalist, humanist scheme designed to support the varying skills and interests of the students, we recognize that professors and students alike need to be able to share and articulate the structure and content of the program. Therefore, we have clearly designated three years of study as: first year “Core” (design thinking, ideation, process, skills), second year “Research” (methodology, topics, sources, electives, pre-thesis), and third year “Thesis” (major individual project). Students can take specialized studios that respond to their individual interests and pursuits. The entire curriculum is designed to offer all students the professional knowledge and skills in historical, societal, and global contexts that are necessary for becoming successful design professionals. The thesis provides the greatest possible freedom and opportunity for pursuit of a selected topic and is done under the direction of the faculty. Candidates are expected to demonstrate the full range of design skills and methodology in their thesis projects. Subjects range from consumer products and packaging to furniture and experiential design to the impact of emerging philosophies, materials, and technologies. Students register for six credits of thesis over one year, which culminates in a formal presentation to invited jurors followed by a presentation of the work at the annual design show, a public event attended by industry leaders and potential employers.

Imperial College in London and continues through the spring semester at Keio University in Tokyo. Simultaneously, this groundbreaking international study partnership allows students from London and Tokyo to spend a semester at Pratt. A one-semester option of the GID program is also available. At Keio, studies are devoted to media design and technology, using the school’s advanced facilities, including prototyping and robotics. In London, the curriculum focuses on engineering and invention. The Pratt comp onent emphasizes the core principles of industrial design. Pratt GID students then return to New York to complete their final two semesters of thesis work and required courses. In addition to their local studies, students at each location will collaborate on a large-scale international project. By capitalizing on the expertise of each school and the distinct cultures of the three locations, the GID program provides students a rich academic experi ence and a unique perspective on global design and entrepreneurship that no single institution could provide. Applicants are expected to indicate their interest in the GID at the time of entering the M.I.D. program.

GID: Global Innovation Design Study Abroad Pratt M.I.D. students can choose the exciting option of spending their entire second year abroad for full credit. The second year at Pratt’s graduate program is dedicated to research, and students opting for GID are committed to doing their research abroad. The GID program starts in the fall semester at the Royal College of Art (RCA) and

The M.F.A. in Interior Design at Pratt Institute is located within the ultimate learning environment of New York City—the interior design capital of the United States. We present an inspiring and challenging course of study in an expanding and dynamic discipline. In 2017, the graduate interior design program was ranked first in the country by DesignIntelligence. Since 2006, we have been consistently ranked in the top three across the country. As one of the top graduate programs in the country, we inspire our students to become leaders by setting high standards for critical thinking, exemplary expression, professional aptitude, and responsible action in enhancing and transforming the human environment. The M.F.A. in Interior Design guides students in generating creative solutions that integrate an under standing of 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. The program prepares students with a high level of critical inquiry and explorative capacity that will establish them as leaders and innovators in the field and, in turn, lead to an ongoing exploration of the larger potentials of interior design practice, education, and research. The M.F.A. degree concentrates on the preparation of individuals who are ready to contribute to the academic discipline as well as the profession. Our students are drawn from all parts of the world, with varying backgrounds and from a variety of disciplines, which creates an intel lectually and aesthetically stimulating environment in the studios. These students are a select group who come to Pratt to work hard and prepare to enter a profession in which the designer must be multifaceted and able to provide innovative design solutions. Our M.F.A. program allows students with different backgrounds to come together to study and create. Many come to the program for a career change, so classroom interchange is enhanced by the diversity of students. For instance, a student who comes from a background in economics has a very different approach from one coming from dance, and each has something to learn from the other. An important part of Pratt’s mission is to prepare graduates to become leaders in the profession, challenging and preparing our students to develop to their fullest potential. The M.F.A. curriculum brings a focus to the interior by concentrating on scale, use, and developing materiality in order to connect the practice of interior design to larger issues of inhabitation, cities, and society. Our faculty members are a mixture of practicing professionals and academics with many levels of expertise. They bring real-world design experience into their creative classroom

teaching. The program instills values in its students, not as mere competencies, but as opportunities for critical engagement in the contemporary world. In support of this transformative responsibility, the program fosters an inquisitive dialogue among its faculty and students, and open exchange with the world of designers, producers, and users of the built environment. We are committed to the application of current technology, to the educational experience, and to the support of analysis and research that contributes to the body of knowledge in the discipline.

are required to take a qualifying year of preparatory study, a total of 24 credits, before they continue the M.F.A degree. These students complete 84 credits in three years. A portfolio for the qualifying year of preparatory study is not required, however applicants are strongly encouraged to submit samples of creative and/or profes sional work from relevant disciplines, such as: any of the fine arts, industrial design, fashion design, furniture making, exhibition work, communications design, or similar.

THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The graduate Interior Design program at Pratt, like its undergraduate counterpart, is an architecturally oriented 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 colors—are studied in relation to their effects on the human spirit. The M.F.A. enriches the academic experience through emphasis on cultural and technological innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and theoretical and applied research. It is a degree program for students who wish to study interior design as an academic discourse as well as a professional endeavor. The curriculum allows students to develop areas of specialization with concentration options and will encourage interdisciplinary work and cross-disciplinary course registration. Concentrations include emerging technologies, sustainability, exhibition design, theory and self-directed topics. The M.F.A. allows for expanding the graduate experience and enhancing the student’s area of focus. 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 menu of courses is available for the pursuit of individual interests. The program culminates in a thesis project in the final year of study. The thesis provides the greatest possible freedom and opportunity for a student to pursue a selected topic in depth. Work is done under the direction of thesis advisers and is completed within one year. Applicants with an undergraduate degree in interior design, architecture, or other closely related design fields may be eligible to complete the M.F.A. in two years, a total of 60 credits; a portfolio is required. Applicants with undergraduate backgrounds that are unrelated to interior design or architecture, but whose applications indicate a strong aptitude for interior design graduate coursework,

Museums and Digital Culture

MASTER OF SCIENCE IN MUSEUMS AND DIGITAL CULTURE (M.S.) The 36-credit M.S. in Museums and Digital Culture prepares full-time and part-time students with the knowledge and skills for careers in the rapidly expanding field of museums in the digital age—in contrast to museum studies programs generally, which are generally concerned with the more traditional curatorial and administrative areas of museum work. This program, designed for the 21st-century information society constitutes the first museum master’s focusing on the use of digital technology and media in museums—physical, virtual, and on the web. Grounded in the theory and practice of information science and the related fields of museum informatics and digital cultural heritage, the M.S. in Museums benefits from the commonalities of digital information practices across galleries, libraries, archives, and museums.

Arrangements for internships are between the student and the institution. Students will find an array of internships posted on the School of Information Google group and may also seek out other internship opportunities according to their interests and needs. International Programs Florence Summer Program Offered in partnership with Studio Art Centers International (SACI), the program consists of two 3-credit courses taught by leading Italian scholars and practitioners in Florence: ll Florentine Art and Culture: Museum and Library Research and Documentation immerses students in the arts and culture of Florence through expert teaching and discussion, featuring on-site learning in the museums and libraries of Florence. Students are guided in their exploration of the city’s magnificent architecture, sculpture, and design. Through digital capture (students take their own photographs of art objects) and curation, each student creates a digital thematic exhibition drawn from studies in the course. The program’s activities and projects teach students advanced skills in digital curation for cultural heritage. ll Cultural Heritage Conservation is an atelier studio course. It features hands-on conservation work for art on paper and rare books. Students create books in classical rare-book style.

The mission of the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences is to enable students to explore areas of knowledge and reflect critically and creatively on aesthetic forms and on intellectual and cultural practices. Graduates can conduct research, substantiate arguments, and communicate in the broadest possible socio historical, literary, and scientific contexts. The school’s primary goal is for its students to make continuing contributions as critical thinkers and creative professionals. On the graduate level, the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences offers the M.A. in Media Studies, the M.S. in History of Art and Design, the M.F.A. in Writing, and the M.F.A. in Performance and Perform ance Studies. Our graduate programs are unique to a liberal arts school located within an art and design institution in that they work with and interrogate social spaces that are configured and reconfigured using a creative lens influenced by artists, designers, and architects. In addition, the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences offers graduate classes for students majoring in the fine arts, digital arts, communications design, and architecture, among others. Our faculty members in the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences are nationally and internationally known creative artists, performers, writers, scholars, critics, and scientists who have chosen to be at Pratt because our inherent cross-/transdisciplinary nature gives us the freedom to fundamentally rethink the way we approach our given subjects. The School of Liberal Arts and Sciences also provides English language support for international students in the full‑time Intensive Certificate of English Proficiency program and the Summer Certificate Program (IEP, CEP, and SCP). The courses in these programs help students to prepare for academic and studio courses by incorporating elements of literature, as well as critical theories and examinations of the visual arts. The SCP is strongly recommended for students whose TOEFL score is below 600 (PbT). Students who complete the SCP program are not required to take the placement exam. Finally, our Writing and Tutorial Center gives support to students in their graduate thesis by giving them the tools to better articulate and present their final projects.

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 professional 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 curric ulum, 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 graduate student’s program includes “behindthe-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, which adds a real-life perspective to their scholarly studies. The History of Art and Design Department offers exciting lectures and seminars on a wide range of approaches, from connoisseurship to the most recent theoretical approaches. Frequent excursions and internships result from our extensive working relation ships with the city’s museums, galleries, and cultural organizations and are a crucial part of the curriculum. GRADUATE DEGREES The History of Art and Design Department offers the M.A. degree, requiring 36 credits as described below, and a thesis. Two dual-degree programs requiring 30 credits are available: History of Art and Design with Fine Arts, leading to M.A./M.F.A. degrees, and History of Art and Design with Library and Information Science, leading to M.A./M.S. degrees.

Advanced Certificate in Museum Studies The Certificate in Museum Studies complements the M.A. degree in the History of Art and Design by offering both a solid base in art and design history and practical, in-depth experience in the museum world. History of Art and Design courses are augmented by Pratt’s School of Information and Department of Art and Design Education. Many members of our faculty are museum professionals who bring their expertise and experience to the classroom. As part of the program, students do two internships at major New York institutions. The certificate is intended to give graduates an “edge” for those who seek museum employment. The certificate is available to graduate students enrolled in the History of Art and Design master’s program as well as those in the dual programs with the Department of Fine Arts and the School of Information and is only awarded upon completion of those master’s degrees. Courses for the certificate may be taken within the credits required for the M.A. degree. Materials, Techniques, and Conservation Art’s historical concern with materials and techniques exists naturally in connection with studio programs in the practice of art. This is an emphasis in all our courses, but it takes specific form in a required Materials and Conservation course. In addition, issues related to conservation problems in Venetian art history are explored with the help of local experts on-site in our Venice program. Pratt in Venice Pratt in Venice is a six-week summer program that takes place in June and July. Art History of Venice (HA590I, 3 credits) and Materials and Techniques of Venetian Art (HA600I, 3 credits) are offered together with Painting (Art 590I, 2–3 credits) and Printmaking/Drawing (Art 591I, 2–3 credits). Graduate and undergraduate students enroll for six to nine credits. We collaborate with the Università Internazionale dell’Arte and the Scuola Internazionale di Grafica in Venice. Group visits to Padua and Bassano/ Maser are included. The program fosters interaction between art history and the studio arts through group events, faculty/student discussions, visiting lecturers, and just by being there together. Participants experience the visual riches of Venice and have the opportunity to conduct research in extraordinary museums and libraries.

Media Studies

The Graduate Program in Media Studies at Pratt, offered at the Brooklyn campus, is situated in the uniquely vibrant environment of an art, design, and architecture school. Students who value both the intellectual and creative sides of media studies are encouraged to apply. Media Studies is an intensive program developed in relation to Pratt’s art, design, and architecture environ ment and to the burgeoning mediascape, lively social space, and theoretical scene of Brooklyn and New York City. Classes are small, following both the seminar and workshop formats, and all classes are taught by professors. The program has been conceived and instituted in a way that understands that media emergence is rapidly trans forming experience, society, and knowledge. It is designed to foster the investigation of many of the significant social, political, cultural, economic, and aesthetic questions of our time by drawing both on the historical record with regard to media forms and on cutting-edge theory regard ing gender and sexuality, race, nationality, political economy, aesthetic form, screen studies, and the like. THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The program emphasizes studies of media in their various forms, including film, video, television, radio, writing, and computer-mediated forms of convergence. Students study the logics and logistics of media and mediation, and they explore cultural technologies of expression, representation, and manipulation, along with the aesthetic, economic, and political contexts in which such media necessarily operate. Students gain expertise in media history, theory, and practice, and in textual analysis, interpretation, and semiotics. The Master of Arts in Media Studies graduate program consists of 30 credits, taken over three semesters, and a thesis. The program can be completed in three semesters if the student finds a final thesis/project topic during the first year and prepares to complete it in the third semester. Even so, an extra semester is generally recommended to allow more time to find, explore, and develop the thesis/ project that will best serve the student’s particular interests. The core sequence for the M.A. consists of Mediologies I and II (six credits total) and Encounters I and II (two credits total), Practices I and II (elective courses totaling six credits), seminars and project courses (electives totaling 12 credits), an internship course (optional), and a final thesis with a required Final Project/Thesis Workshop (four credits total). Mediologies courses (HMS-650A/B) provide students with crucial critical and theoretical tools; students take a sequence of two required introductory courses during their first year. These courses are designed for students

185

with substantial experience in media studies as well as students with less exposure. Practices courses comprise a range of electives, including those taught in other programs, such as Digital Arts. These courses enable students to acquire basic competence in media aesthetics and production. Encounters courses (HMS-549A/B) enable students to engage directly with others working in media fields, and with timely issues and ideas, in an open-discussion “salon” environment. The Final Project/Thesis Workshop (HMS-659A) offers an intensive, small support group in which students can develop and write their thesis; students who want more time to finish their thesis may take HMS-659B (Thesis in Progress). Students may also choose to undertake an internship for academic credit (HMS-9700, 9701, 9702, 9703) and professional enrichment. In addition to the core courses described above, the program offers a range of electives in areas of special ization and interdisciplinary constellations within media studies, enabling students to develop particular areas of concentration, first through coursework and then in their one-on-one work with thesis advisers. Faculty represent areas that include new media; documentary studies; global media; media and the urban environment; media and performance; music/sound studies; media/ attention economies; media ecology; archaeology of (new) media; and media, activism, and social change. Elective seminars run in the format of small discussion courses focused on individual or team presentations on the analysis of texts, films, objects, themes, and theories. Elective project courses are semester-long laboratory/ workshops in which students and one or more faculty members—in any one of several departments—engage a topic, idea, interface, space, or modality focusing on the interface between the theorization and production of media objects. Foci will vary based upon specific expertise and interests of involved faculty and students. Each year in late April, the Media Studies program hosts a conference, Mediologies, which includes present ations of work and works-in-progress by students, faculty, and guest presenters. Seminar courses being offered in the spring enable students to develop papers and projects specifically for presentation at Mediologies.

Performance and Performance Studies

Chair Arlene Keizer, Ph.D. Administrative Assistant Andrea Bott abott33@pratt.edu Coordinator Tracie Morris, M.F.A., Ph.D. tmorris@pratt.edu 718.636.3607 Office DeKalb Hall 316

Through the simultaneous development of practice and study, students earning an M.F.A. in Performance and Performance Studies at Pratt are grounded in creative practices with a strong emphasis on theory that they can apply directly to their creative work. The program, offered on the Brooklyn campus, is guided by a set of principles about the integral nature and importance of performance, community, art practice, theory, and politics. Students explore the ways in which effective performance is artistically engaging and is a catalyst for scholarship and social change. This new degree was developed with a wide range of practitioners, scholars, and students in mind, including recent undergraduates; professionals in the field who are seeking terminal career credentials; working performers and artists who seek to gain a more critical/theoretical depth and background (as well as new performance skills) for their work; scholars with some artistic training who seek to complement their work with training in performance technique; and students from other disciplines who understand the opportunities they can gain by focusing on the performative dimensions of their fields. With an M.F.A. in Performance and Performance Studies from Pratt, artist-scholars will be able to: (1) work as artists and performance practitioners; (2) work as teachers in colleges/universities and other institutions in a variety of fields—such as theater, performance studies, art criticism, movement, philosophy, performance art, interdisciplinary art forms, and creative writing— and in community settings, arts education and youth programs, as well as other venues; (3) work as curators, arts administrators, art critics, or production staff, and in media; and (4) pursue a Ph.D. in a range of fields, including performance studies; cultural studies; theater; studies of gender, ethnicity, and queerness; and others. THE PROGRAM’S STRUCTURE The goal of the M.F.A. in Performance and Performance Studies is to develop students as artists and thinkers. Students will move from a basic command of the field of performance practice as well as theory to become active artists/scholars who contribute to the field’s evolution. Students in the program will take four semesters, or 60 credits, of courses. Of these, 33 credit hours will be in required courses, and 27 in electives selected based on students’ needs and interests. Throughout, students will combine study in performance practice with theo retical inquiry in performance studies. After taking a series of foundation courses in the first year, students will develop their own body of work in the second year. In their last semester, the students will focus on rounding out the

189

competencies they are building and on refining their con cluding academic and performance art presentations. We also offer opportunities for students to work with community-based and larger institutional arts organizations in which performance and constructs of performativity are central. The students will work intimately to serve these communities in conceptual and practical contribu tions to art practice and community empowerment for underserved populations. The Performance and Performance Studies program is anchored by a series of core, required classes: (1) Introduction to Performance Theory (PPS 650a), where students focus on conceptual underpinnings of the field; (2) Introduction to Performance Practice (PPS 651a), providing core competencies in crucial aspects of performance and presentation; (3) workshops with an artist-in-residence (PPS 549a), on cross-cultural per formance (PPS 550a), and on community-based practice (PPS 550b); (4) a Critical Writing course (PPS 652a) to support scholarly writing skills, increasingly vital as a component both of creative/collaborative processes and professional practice; and (5) Thesis/Project Workshops (PPS 659a and 659b) to support students in developing viable and fully realized visions and incarn ations of their own work. Students will also take Open Electives (totaling 27 credits), which will be theory and practice seminars offered by full- and part-time faculty and covering a wide range of topics and areas. As part of the program’s community focus, students are also strongly encouraged to do an internship to fulfill one of their electives. The required second-semester workshop on community-based practice will provide important preparation and, in some cases, specific venues and contacts to accommodate a broad range of interests. In addition to providing support through the structure of courses of the program, the P+PS M.F.A. strongly encourages connections for our students and graduates that will prepare them for successful careers in the field. The support system includes opportunities for internships, mentorships, networking, visiting artists, scholars-inresidence, and presentations attended by influencers in performance and performance studies.

The Pratt M.F.A. in Writing, offered on the Brooklyn campus, is a new and unique two-year program specifically designed to support and encourage intellectually rigorous and inspired writing practices that are philosophically, culturally, and politically informed. The premise of the program is that writing can be transformative at all scales, from the personal to the social, and we aim to incubate such cosmopolitan, local, pleasurefilled, and potentially revolutionary poetic practices. Our approach to the 39-credit M.F.A. curriculum emphasizes interdisciplinary group critiques (with core faculty, guest artists, and peers engaging in weekly discus sions and presentations of student work). Additionally, students take part in one-on-one guided mentorships, civic and urban exploration and fieldwork, and seminars in literature, media studies, performance, experimental practices, activism, and critical theory, The Pratt M.F.A. therefore offers contemporary writers the tools and the support they need to build a practice that is responsive and adaptive (and even a form of resist ance) to our rapidly evolving environmental and political times and to the enormous shifts taking place in media technologies. What can writing become, now that the landscape for its production, distribution, and exchange includes not only books and journals, but also internet platforms, digital technologies, video, audio, PDFs, blogs, and social media? This program engages a vision of writing that is not genre-specific but, rather, inclusive of multiple modes of inscription—from fiction to poetry, performance to nonfiction, translation to cultural criticism, investigative journalism to digital media, documentary to science fiction. There is also a special focus on alternate or hybrid approaches to writing, with hybridity defined as a set of interactive processes that can potentially generate new social spaces. What avant-garde experiments, what research, what interventions, what archives, what speech acts, what literary and artistic traditions, what genres, what media technologies, what theoretical frames, what narratives, and what materials are most suited to your artistic inquiries? We will help you figure that out as you begin to establish a creative practice that is sustainable across a lifetime of change. Our core faculty of writers is diverse and interna tionally renowned. Their work traverses and often combines numerous disciplines: activism, performance art, translation, media and cultural theory, theater, and fine art. Our course of study emphasizes collaboration, radical pedagogy, administrative transparency, and non-hierarchical learning.

193

Course of Study The Graduate Program in Writing M.F.A. consists of several core classes and seminars taken over four semesters (two years), with the goal of producing a final manuscript, performance, or collaborative event. There are three notable features of the program. First, the heart of the program is a once-a-week core class, the Writing Studio, which is an open, democratic forum dedicated to the collective critique and discussion of student works in progress. Second, each student is offered one-on-one guided mentorship with a chosen faculty member. Third, the program provides students with support and guidance to extend their cultural productions and research interests into the world in the form of fieldwork residencies: ongoing residencies conducted in collaboration with an outside institution, community organization, archive, occupational domain, or activist group. Other notable features of the Pratt M.F.A. in Writing include: ll Student-led collaborative writing practice seminars that explore the intersections of writing, research, activism, radical pedagogy, and critical theory. ll Sustained focus on 21st-century modes of authorship, including: activism, transdisciplinary and cross‑genre experiment, performance, innovative uses of new media, investigative and research techniques, conceptual frameworks, collaborative methods, and site-specific approaches. ll A course of study stressing a writing process that takes into account the material and technological aspects of writing, the human body that produces it, and the larger social, sexual, historical, economic, racial, and cultural contexts in which and through which all imaginative writing takes place. ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Applications for admission to the Master of Fine Arts program are due January 5 for the following fall; the program accepts fall entrants only. Applicants should have a B.A., B.S., or B.F.A. from an accredited institution. Candidates submit (1) a statement of purpose in which they describe how their writing interests align with the vision of the program; (2) 10–20 pages of relevant writing samples of any genre; (3) transcripts of undergraduate coursework; and (4) two letters of recommendation.

MASTER OF ARTS IN MEDIA STUDIES The graduate program in Media Studies offers freedom and flexibility for students to design their program of study. We offer exciting and challenging opportunities for students to confront the most pressing issues of our time: questions around social justice, sustainability, race, sexuality, nationalism, militarization, economics, and celebrity. The curriculum emphasizes studies of media in various forms, including film, video, television, radio, writing, smartphones, and other computerized forms of media convergence. Alongside their theoretical investigations, students are also encouraged to become media makers. MASTER OF FINE ARTS IN WRITING A new and unique two-year program, the Pratt M.F.A. in Writing is specifically designed to support and encourage intellectually rigorous and inspired writing practices that are philosophically, culturally, and politically informed. The premise of the program is that writing can be trans formative at all scales, from the personal to the social. We aim to incubate such radically cosmopolitan, resolutely local, pleasure-filled, and potentially revolutionary poetic practices. Our innovative approach to the M.F.A. curriculum emphasizes interdisciplinary group critiques with core faculty, guest artists, and peers engaging in weekly discussions and presentations of student work. MASTER OF FINE ARTS IN PERFORMANCE AND PERFORMANCE STUDIES Through the simultaneous development of practice and study, students earning an M.F.A. in Performance and Performance Studies at Pratt are grounded in creative practices with a strong emphasis on conceptual framing, and develop a theoretical foundation they can apply directly to their work. The program is guided by a set of principles about the integral nature and importance of performance, community, and politics. Students explore

197

how effective theater is both artistically engaging and a catalyst for social change. MASTER OF SCIENCE IN THE HISTORY OF ART AND DESIGN The graduate studies in the History of Art and Design provide students with the skills and knowledge to pursue careers as art and design historians and professionals in museums, galleries, and libraries, or to pursue graduate work at the doctoral level. Through comprehensive study of global art and design within historical and cultural contexts and intensive research and scholarship in specialized areas, students develop a critical under standing of the field as well as research and analytical skills. Graduates demonstrate excellence in independent and critical thinking and understanding of the historical roles and responsibilities of art and design. Internships at museums, libraries, nonprofit art organizations, and galleries provide opportunities for students to work in professional areas of their interests and prepare for future careers. The department also offers two dual degrees: M.S./M.F.A. with Fine Arts, and the M.S./M.S. with Information and Library Sciences. RESOURCES IN THE SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES Intensive English Program 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 mission of all programs in the IEP is to support successful matriculation of international students by providing appropriate English language instruction. Internal assess ment and advisement ensure students’ proper place ment in English-language courses, as well as successful matriculation and degree attainment. The curriculum includes art, design, and architecture content and is enhanced by direct exposure to related cultural experiences and language-learning technology. Pratt Institute and the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences welcome international students and offer an array of programs and services to improve Englishlanguage skills and academic readiness. All international students with TOEFL scores below 600 (PbT), 250 (CBT), or 100 (iBT)—including transfer students—whose first language is not English must demonstrate proficiency in English by taking an English Placement Test upon arriving at the Institute. The Intensive English Program (IEP) in

Classes in the Liberal Arts

the Language Resource Center on Pratt’s Brooklyn campus administers the test. This placement test 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 requirement 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 Proficiency (CEP) program. Any graduate interna tional student who has been enrolled in one Intensive English course without having expempted from (passed) the program will be moved to probationary status during his/her second semester. Students who have registered for two (fall and spring) semesters and who do not assess at the exempt level may be required to withdraw voluntarily from Pratt or register for the full-time CEP program. 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, namely 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 design content into their courses. Our classes are small (8 to 12 students per session), and enrolled international students benefit from their use of the Language Resource and Writing and Tutorial Centers for additional language learning practice. For information on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) requirements at Pratt Institute, please refer to the catalog listing for particular schools and departments. New international students are strongly encouraged to enroll in IEP summer courses in order to be fully prepared for the academic requirements of their degree programs. The Certificate of English Proficiency Program The Certificate of English Proficiency (CEP) program at Pratt Institute is a one‑year English-language program located at our Brooklyn campus. Students whose TOEFL scores fall below the admission minimums established by Institute 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, as well as TOEFL preparation. For more information on Pratt’s Intensive and Certificate 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 instru ments and equipment are available, and graduates 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. Appointments can be made by phone, Skype IM, or in person.

Questions? Ask Pratt’s “Virtual Adviser” at www.pratt.edu/ask.

Pratt Institute welcomes applications from all qualified students, regardless of age, sex, religion, race, color, creed, national origin, or disability. Admissions committees base their decisions on a careful review of all credentials submitted by the applicant. Although admission stand ards at Pratt are high, extraordinary talent may sometimes offset a lower grade point average or test score. If a student is not accepted, this decision is not a negative reflection of the student’s chances for successful completion of similar studies at another institution, nor does it preclude the student’s eventual admission to the Institute. The Office of Graduate Admissions is open weekdays from 9 AM to 5 PM from September through May, and from 9 AM to 4 PM during June, July, and August. GUIDED CAMPUS TOURS Guided campus tours of the Brooklyn campus are scheduled Monday and Friday at 10 AM, 12 PM, and 2 PM. Tuesday and Thursday tours are scheduled at 10 AM and 2 PM. Schedule a campus tour online at www.pratt.edu/ visit, call our Visit Coordinator at 718.636.3779 or 800.331.0834, or email us at visit@pratt.edu. Prospective graduate applicants or students are encouraged to contact their academic department directly to discuss the program and see the facilities. GRADUATE MERIT-BASED SCHOLARSHIPS Incoming students will be evaluated by their academic department for merit-based scholarships upon accep tance. These are renewable for the duration of the program for students who maintain a 3.0 GPA. There is no application form. Assistantships are awarded to some second-year students. All recipients must be full-time (nine credits minimum per semester). GRADUATE ADMISSIONS All applicants to graduate programs at Pratt must have received a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution in the United States or have been awarded the equivalent of the bachelor’s degree from an interna tional institution of acceptable standards. International students should see the “Accepted International Students” section for additional requirements.

Some programs will accept applications after the deadline if there is room. See the “Department

ACADEMIC PROGRESS AND PURSUIT

Standards of Degree Progress Master’s Degree/Post-Master’s Certificate

Financial Assistance Standards Standards of Academic Progress for Determining Eligibility for Pratt and Federal Financial Aid Pratt applies minimum academic progress standards to all students receiving Pratt aid, federal aid, and state aid (including loans). Criteria Measurable satisfactory academic progress for a full-time graduate student means: ll The student must complete a minimum of nine credits each semester ll The student’s cumulative grade point average (GPA) must not fall below 3.0. ll Students receiving federal and Pratt financial aid who drop credits will be subject to adjustments in their financial aid package. Review Policies 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 include only those for courses with A through D grades. A student not meeting these standards will be placed on financial aid warning for one semester. After the grades for the warning semester are calculated, the student’s transcript will be reviewed. If the student fails to meet the standards, all of their financial aid will be revoked begin ning with the semester following the warning semester. Once the student meets the minimum standards, they may reapply for financial aid. A student may choose to continue to study without Title IV aid if the department grants approval. In this instance, the student must apply and be approved for an alternative loan prior to getting registration approval from Student Financial Services. Standards of Academic Progress for Determining Eligibility for Student Aid The following chart lists Pratt Institute’s standards of degree progress for determining eligibility. Note that each program type shown on the chart requires that as you begin each term shown: ll You must have earned at least the required number of credits listed; and ll You must have achieved the minimum GPA. Both of these requirements must be met before loan certification can occur.

PRATT INSTITUTE REFUND POLICY Full Refund Withdrawal prior to and including the opening day of term

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.

85 Percent Tuition Refund Withdrawal from the second through eighth day of the term 70 Percent Tuition Refund Withdrawal from the ninth through 15th day of the term 55 Percent Tuition Refund Withdrawal from the 16th through 22nd day of the term No Refund Withdrawal after the 22nd day of the term Individual fees are not refundable after the first day of the term. Once a student’s request is received, processing takes approximately 10 working days. Liability is computed from the date the form is signed by the registrar staff. Withdrawals may not be made by telephone. Check regist ration schedules and the Institute’s calendar for exact liability deadline dates each semester. Withdrawal from courses does not automatically cancel housing or meal plans. Penalties for housing and meal plans are calculated based on the date the student submits a completed Adjustment Form to the Office of Residential Life. Refunds for withdrawn courses are not automatic and must be requested from Student Financial Services. REFUNDS ON STUDENT’S CREDIT BALANCE A credit balance on a student’s account after applying Title IV funds (Federal Student Aid Funds) will be auto matically 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 enroll ment the date the student rescinds his or her authori zation to apply Title IV funds to other charges or for the Institute to hold excess funds Refund checks are valid for 90 days from the date of the check issued. In keeping with federal regulations, all Title IV (Federal Student Aid) checks not cashed within the time frame listed above will be considered unclaimed and will result in funds being returned to the federal government.

BILLING Bills are mailed to one address. One copy of each bill will be mailed to the address the student lists as his or her “billing” address on registration records. A “billing” address may be established, changed, or deleted at any time by writing or visiting the Office of the Registrar. Due dates cannot be extended because bills have not been received. If no billing address is specified, bills are mailed to the permanent address. You may also pay online at www.pratt.edu/myPratt. BILLING SCHEDULE All bills, including summer, are available online. Fall bills are available online after July 1, if registration has already occurred. If you do not receive a bill, you may contact Student Financial Services prior to the due date to ascertain the amount due. Please consult the costs section and your housing license if you need an earlier estimate. Consult the annual Academic Calendar and Academic Guide for exact payment deadlines. LATE PAYMENT FEE AND INTEREST A late payment fee of $195 is assessed each semester on all bills remaining unpaid, in whole or in part, after the due date of the tuition bill for the semester. NOTICE OF IRS FILING For any cash amount paid totaling $10,000 or more made within a 12-month period, the IRS form 8300 will be completed and sent to the IRS. Please be sure to present photo ID. PAYMENTS Payments must include the student’s name and student ID number. Checks and money orders should be made payable to Pratt Institute in U.S. dollars and drawn on a U.S. bank. Checks drawn on an international bank may delay credit to the student’s account and may be subject to a collection fee imposed by Pratt’s bank.

242

Students may pay in person and receive a receipt by presenting the invoice and payment to Student Financial Services, Myrtle Hall 6th Floor, between 9 AM and 5 PM, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. Evening hours are on Thursdays. Payment by mail avoids waiting in line. Please allow five working days for mail delivery and a mini mum of three weeks for processing. RETURNED CHECKS The Institute charges a processing fee of up to $25 when a check is returned by the student’s bank for any reason. Any check in payment of an Institute charge that is returned by the bank may result in a late-payment charge, as well as a returned-check charge. 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. A student who contests a portion of the bill 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. DIRECT LOANS (STAFFORD, PLUS) 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. Payee must endorse the checks before they can 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 over due will not be allowed to register for the Institute, receive grades, transcripts, or diploma, or have enroll ment 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.

Registration and Academic Policies

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 jeopardize a student’s chances of obtaining their preferred academic course schedule. Late Registration New and continuing students who do not complete regist ration during their designated 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. 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 www.pratt.edu/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 adviserapproved changes on www.pratt.edu/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. 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 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

246

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 Student Financial Services. Only after receiving this signed authorization will the 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 Residency Requirement Graduate students are expected to complete a minimum of 75 percent of the program’s credits at Pratt, with the exception of the first-professional (M.Arch.) program in Architecture, which requires 67 percent of the credits to be completed at Pratt.

Registration and Academic Policies

TRANSFER CREDITS Transfer Credit Prior to Matriculation Transfer credit is granted for courses that are approp riate to the program curriculum at Pratt from a school accredited by an accrediting agency or state approval agency recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education or the international equivalent. Credits may be awarded for courses in which (1) a grade of B or better is earned from domestic institutions (or 80 or better from international institutions as determined by an official international credit evaluation service) and (2) the courses correspond to the specific course requirements of the applicant’s program of study. Grades lower than B (including B-) or less than 80 are not transferable. Grades of transfer credits are not included in the GPA. The number of credits toward a master’s degree that may be transferred from another graduate institution may not exceed 25 percent of the total number of credits required for graduation, with the exception of the firstprofessional (M.Arch.) program in Architecture, which permits up to 33 percent of the program’s total credits to be transferred. Courses that have been applied toward an earned graduate degree will not be considered for transfer credit. Students seeking transfer credits for professional courses in art, design, or architecture are required to submit a portfolio reflective of their studio coursework 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 international credit evaluation service. Pratt accepts international credit evaluations performed by any member of the National Association of Credit Evaluation Services (NACES). 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. Transfer Credit after Matriculation Graduate students, once matriculated at Pratt, are expected to complete their degree requirements at Pratt. Students who are in good academic standing may request to take a course at another institution. These students must get permission in advance to take courses at other institutions for transfer to their Pratt record. Credit for

247

courses taken, with permission, at another institution while matriculated at Pratt is limited to a maximum of six. To be accepted for transfer credit, the course must be recognized for graduate-level credit by the institution attended and must be passed with a grade of B or better. Grades lower than B (including B-) are not transferable. Grades of transfer credits are not included in the GPA. PORTFOLIO/WORK EXPERIENCE CREDIT Based on previous work experience and/or portfolio, credit may be granted only for work experience gained before initial matriculation at the Institute. This is available to all graduate students 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 before initial enrollment for classes. 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 the 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. Credits earned through this procedure are not included in the GPA. They will not count toward the Institute’s minimum residency requirement.

Registration and Academic Policies

STUDENT STATUS Full-Time Graduate To establish full-time equivalence, graduate students must enroll for nine or more semester credits (or an equivalent combination of credits and activities recognized as applicable). Graduate students enrolled in their thesis course or Thesis in Progress are considered full time. Students registered for Intensive English are considered registered in activities equivalent to two credits for each section. Part-Time Graduate Graduate students are classified as part-time if they schedule or drop to fewer than nine credits of registered coursework. Attendance Policy Pratt Institute understands that students’ engagement in their program of study is central to their success. While no attendance policy can assure that, regular class attendance is key to this engagement and signals the commitment Pratt students make to participate fully in their education. Faculty are responsible for including a reasonable attendance policy on the syllabus for each course they teach, consistent with department-specific guidelines, if applicable, and with Institute policy regarding reasonable accommodation of students with documented disabilities. Students are responsible for knowing the attendance policy in each of their classes; for understanding whether a class absence has been excused or not; for obtaining material covered during an absence (note: instructors may request that a student obtain the material from peers); and for determining, in consultation with the instructor and ahead of time if possible, whether make-up work will be permitted. Consistent attendance is essential for the completion of any course or program. Attending class does not earn students any specific portion of their grade, but is the pre‑condition for passing the course, while missing class may seriously harm a student’s grade. Grades may be lowered a letter grade for each unexcused absence, at the discretion of the instructor. Even as few as three unexcused absences in some courses (especially those that meet only once per week) may result in an automatic “F” for the course. (Note: Students shall not be penalized for class absences prior to adding a course at the beginning of a semester, though faculty may expect students to make up any missed assignments.) Pratt Institute respects students’ requirements to observe days of cultural significance, including religious holy days, and recognizes that some students might need to miss class to do so. In this, or other similar, circumstance,

248

students are responsible for consulting with faculty ahead of time about how and when they can make up work they will miss. Faculty are encouraged to give consideration to students who have documentation from the Office of Health and Counseling. Reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities will continue to be provided, as appropriate. 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. In all cases where the student is not the direct recipient, the student must provide written permission to release the information as well as the name and address of the company or person that is to receive the verification letter.

CHANGES AND WITHDRAWALS 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 his or her major must first meet with the department chair and then notify Graduate Admissions. 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. 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 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 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

249

does not officially withdraw from a registered course will receive a 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 noncredited 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 will also be required to complete an exit interview. The date that the Complete Withdrawal form is turned into the Registrar’s Office is the official date used for 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 cause an official withdrawal or reduce 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, his or her department’s chair or academic adviser, a Student Financial Services representative and the Director of Residential Life (if living in a residence hall). International students should 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.

Registration and Academic Policies

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 undocu mented absence 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 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 reporting 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 in 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 transcripts, 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 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 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 their 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.

Registration and Academic Policies

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.) 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:

the sanctions found in absentia before being permitted to appeal. ll Transcript notations for students expelled are permanent and cannot be appealed.

In Person Official transcripts may also be ordered in person at the Office of the Registrar, Myrtle Hall, 6th Floor, during 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 onan academic transcript: 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. Afterone 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

Registration and Academic Policies

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 institution 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 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 CREDITS 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

252

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) C+, C acceptable The student has shown satisfactory understanding of the content of the course. C is the lowest passing grade for graduate students. (Numerical Value: C+ = 2.3; C = 2.0 ) F failure The student has failed to meet the minimum standards for the course. (Numerical Value: F= 0) WF (Withdrawal Failing) 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+; C (2.0), not C–, 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.

Registration and Academic Policies

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. 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

253

the following term or the grade is changed to a letter grade of F with a numerical value of 0.)

incomplete grade or of a final grade reported in error, no letter grade may be changed following graduation.

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.

REPEATED COURSES A repeated course must be the same course as the one for which the previous final grade was awarded. No graduate student may choose to repeat a course that was passed with a grade of C or higher without specific authorization from the chair or dean. Graduate students must repeat all required courses in which F is the final grade. 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 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 instructor 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 passed, all INC and NR grades will convert to Fs. To view grades online: 1. Log in with your oneKey at www.pratt.edu/myPratt; 2. Click on “Academic Tools” on left side of page, and click “log in”; 3. After the system logs you in, click on the “Students” menu on the sidebar; 4. 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 unless an appeal is granted by department chair or dean. 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

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 the Quality 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 of lecture or studio work, each week throughout one term or the equivalent. Quality Points A 4.00 B+ 3.30 C+ 2.30 D+ 1.30 A– 3.70 B 3.00 C 2.00 D 1.00 B– 2.70 C– 1.70 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:

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 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 graduate students must maintain a cumulative GPA of at least a 3.0 (equivalent of a B) to remain in good standing. A graduate student whose GPA falls below a 3.0 at any time may be subject to academic dismissal. 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. Maximum Time for Graduate Study All work for the master’s degree should be completed within seven (7) calendar years from initial registration in graduate courses as a graduate student at Pratt Institute. The depart ments will not approve registration after seven years with out the written approval of the provost. 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.

Registration and Academic Policies

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. 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. Some times 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. 1. Log in with your oneKey at www.pratt.edu/myPratt; 2. Click on “Academic Tools” on left side of page, and click “log in”; 3. After the system logs you in, click on the “Students” menu on the sidebar; 4. Click on “Degree Audit” under “Course Planning”; 5. 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

255

by the Office of the Registrar during office hours for an explanation. Thesis Enrollment Thesis must be completed within three years, the duration of which equals the initial semester of thesis registration plus five (5) consecutive semesters of Thesis in Progress. Grad uate students must register without interruption and pay the Institute’s tuition and fees for each additional semester of continued thesis work following the initial semester of thesis registration. Any extension beyond the three-year duration is subject to an acceptable demonstration of extenuating circumstances from the candidate and a written approval from the department chair and the dean. First Registered Thesis Credit Semester Graduate students will register for their thesis course. If the student does not complete the thesis by the end of that first semester, completion of the thesis is pending and the student will receive an IP (In Progress) grade. The student must enroll in Thesis in Progress the following semester. Subsequent Semesters of Thesis in Progress Registration for Thesis in Progress must be made for each consecutive semester following enrollment in Thesis. A student is expected to complete his or her thesis within the next five consecutive semesters. If at the end of five semesters the thesis is still pending completion, the student will be withdrawn from the original Thesis course. Re-enrollment in the Thesis course will only take place with the written permission of the department chair. Certification of Enrollment for Registered Thesis Work For certification purposes, Pratt considers students taking Thesis or Thesis in Progress to be full-time. Thesis Submission and Final Grade Students should refer to the latest version of the Graduate Theses Library Guidelines, available at the Pratt Library. Questions concerning organization and formatting of mat erials should be discussed with the Information/Reference department of the Pratt Library before final typing. Graduation Summer Term/October Fall Term/February Spring Term/May

File on or before: September 15 January 15 June 1

Students must submit their own thesis in person, unless it is submitted by a representative from the academic department.

Registration and Academic Policies

For the Pratt Libraries to accept a thesis submittal after the deadline date, a Late Thesis Submittal Permission form must be submitted to the Library. The form is available at the Library Reference desk. The department chair’s signature is required to allow a late thesis submission. Thesis and Thesis in Progress are graded IP. Thesis will remain IP until the thesis adviser assigns a final grade upon completion of the thesis project. A failing grade may be assigned if the student fails to remain in proper progress or communication, or fails to complete a satisfactory thesis. ACADEMIC INTEGRITY STANDARDS At Pratt, students, faculty, and staff do creative and original work. This is one of our community values. For Pratt to be a space where everyone can freely create, our community must adhere to the highest standards of academic integrity. Academic integrity at Pratt means using your own and original ideas in creating academic work. It also means that if you use the ideas or influence of others in your work, you must acknowledge them. At Pratt we do our own work, we are creative, and we give credit where it is due. Based on our value of academic integrity, Pratt has an Academic Integrity Standing Committee (AISC) that is charged with educating faculty, staff, and students about academic integrity practices. Whenever possible, we strive to resolve alleged infractions at the most local level possible, such as between student and professor, or within a department or school. When necessary, members of this committee will form an Academic Integrity Hearing Board. Such boards may hear cases regarding cheating, plagiarism, and other infractions described below; these infractions can be grounds for citation, sanction, or dismissal. Academic Integrity Code When students submit any work for academic credit, they make an implicit claim that the work is wholly their own, completed without the assistance of any unauthorized person. These works include, but are not limited to exams, quizzes, presentations, papers, projects, studio work, and other assignments and assessments. In addition, no student shall prevent another student from making their work. Students may study, collaborate and work together on assignments at the discretion of the instructor. Examples of infractions include but are not limited to: 1. Plagiarism, defined as using the exact language or a close paraphrase of someone else’s ideas without citation. 2. Violations of fair use, including the unauthorized and uncited use of another’s artworks, images, designs, etc.

256

3. The supplying or receiving of completed work including papers, projects, outlines, artworks, designs, prototypes, models, or research for submission by any person other than the author. 4. The unauthorized submission of the same or essentially the same piece of work for credit in two different classes. 5. The unauthorized supplying or receiving of information about the form or content of an examination. 6. The supplying or receiving of partial or complete answers, or suggestions for answers; or the supplying or receiving 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 an examination.) For academic support, students are encouraged to seek assistance from the Writing and Tutorial Center, Pratt Libraries, or consult with an academic advisor about other support resources. GRADUATION AND DEGREES Degrees are conferred by the Institute upon the recom mendation of the dean and faculty of the various schools. This is done three times a year: October 1 (summer term), February 1 (fall term), and June 1 (spring term). Commencement Ceremony One commencement ceremony is held each year at the end of the spring semester.

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

261

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 expect ations 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 inappro priate choices, 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 two residence halls to accom modate graduate 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. Pratt also offers campus meal plans for students who like the convenience of eating on campus. Grand Avenue Residence Grand Avenue Residence can accommodate 50+ students, graduates and undergraduates, in a variety apartment layouts. A “double efficiency” apartment is two students sharing a one-room apartment (with kitchen and bath). A “shared single” room for graduate students is two or more students, each with their own private bedroom, sharing involves two students sharing a one-room efficiency apartment. Our single efficiency is a smaller efficiency apartment that one student occupies. Both of

Student Affairs

these options include a bathroom and kitchen, within the confines of the apartment. The single with shared bath involves each student having a private bedroom, with a shared kitchen and bath. The building is located one block from campus. Each living room is furnished with a sofa, club chair, coffee table, kitchen table, and chairs. Utilities are included, with the exception of telephone. Internet connections and CATV service are provided. The building offers a garden courtyard, laundry facilities, and lounge areas. 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. Willoughby Residence Hall Willoughby Residence Hall is a 17-story former apartment co-op and is the largest residence hall. It accommodates about 900 upperclass and graduate students. The build ing 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 threebedroom). 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. To accom modate additional graduate students, select double

262

rooms are converted to semiprivate single spaces. Each semiprivate space occupies the former living room space of the apartment, is occupied by only one student, and shares kitchen and bathroom facilities with other private single rooms in the apartment. The semiprivate option is only available to graduate students and on an as-needed basis.

Graduate students may opt for a meal plan. Details are provided in the Enrollment Guide and are available from the Office of Residential Life and Housing.

Room Assignment Upon acceptance to the Institute, students are sent an Accepted Student Guide, which includes an application and a brochure describing each housing option. Students are assigned rooms in the order their applications are received. Space is limited, and students are advised to return their completed applications as soon as possible. Assignment notifications are made in June. Students who have not applied by April 15 can anticipate being assigned only if and when space becomes available.

The Learning/Access Center (formerly the Disability Resource Center) facilitates full access so that all students can freely and actively participate in all facets of Pratt life. 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

265

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 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.

Clinical AOD Services Coordinator Jernee Montoya, L.C.S.W. jmontoya@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 once a week during the academic year; and two registered 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

266

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 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 insur ance 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 documentation 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.
