The Creativity in Theory and Practice minor is built around three carefully crafted core courses that introduce design thinking and expression, the ethics of creative practice, and the science of creativity. Students will have the opportunity to put those theories and concepts into practice with a broad selection of “making” electives across a variety of disciplines.
This minor is intended to enhance all disciplines across the university, from art, design, and communication, to business, engineering and computer science and more.
Learning Outcomes
- Describe creative processes in multiple disciplines and in specific terms
- Evaluate experimentation, failure, and revision in the creative process
- Develop engaged skills and effective strategies for navigating uncertainty in creative practice
- Develop understanding of methodological approaches to practice-based research
- Compare and contrast studies in creative cognition
