The course is a practical work experience that aims to relate studio theory and practice to the industry. It obtains for six months, at which time a student is attached to an industry/artist/institution to work under an experienced professional/atelier/institutional setting. At the end of the course, a bound report on the nature of work engagement(s) during the period. The experience acquired shall be presented in a written statement in a group seminar and evaluated. 400 Level Painting

Students should be posted to medical and surgical units where they are required to care for patients with diseases covered in previous medical and surgical courses. Students are expected to develop nursing care plans and implement such under the supervision of faculty, instructors, preceptors, and trained nurses on the ward. Use of case studies and presentations. The second round of four out of twelve weeks will be spent in hospitals setting. Continuous assessment of students will be undertaken by the team from the University, Clinical Site and the ITF officials. Students will also be required on returning to the institution to present a seminar on major duties performed and skills acquired during the training. Grading for the course should give attention to ITF directives.

Conceptualisation of three-dimensional ceramic forms through freehand to the use of software packages to develop the sketches into three-dimensional forms. The course enables students to effectively use the computer in rendering their works in three dimensions and provide students with the opportunities to develop basic rendering concepts with respect to innovative modelling techniques in three-dimensional forms. As continuation of IDC 308, the Use of Computer in Ceramic Modelling I will further students' knowledge on the development of three-dimensional ceramic forms through freehand to the use of software packages to develop the sketches into three-dimensional forms.

A study of the theoretical aspects of the sewing machine and its practical use. The course will cover the study of machine parts and their individual functions. It is aimed at helping students in using the major equipment accurately.

General introduction to basic tools, materials and techniques used in ceramics, fashion design, graphics, textiles, glass design and technology and metal design. It serves as a foundation course that involves the practical exploration of the language and grammar of design at both two- and three-dimensional level. Students are introduced to fundamentals of design, design thinking and ideation process with preliminary exercises of procedural usage of shapes, forms and space to evolve creative ideas. Study of elements and principles of design and its relationship to various industrial design disciplines. Basic requirements of design – function, aesthetic and ergonomics. Introduction to the basic techniques in design, with emphasis on projects using basic shapes, natural forms and found objects leading to product design. Study of principles of form and spatial organization, relief designs, mobiles and objects in the round, modelling and prototyping. Definition, types and methods of reproducing designs. Study of basic repro methods, tools and materials. Basic Design II involves intensive exploration of shapes, forms and space. The focus is on the examination of design in terms of perception of form, technical application, and identification of materials and production methods and basic introduction to design. The role of design in meeting the functional, aesthetic and ergonomic requirements of industrial design products will be analysed. Knowledge of factors determining appropriate design including environmental sustainability and manufacturing techniques. Colour studies. Interrelationship of two and three- dimensional designs.

These introductory courses emphasize quantitative measurements, the treatment of measurement errors, and graphical analysis. A variety of experimental techniques should be employed. The experiments include studies of meters, the oscilloscope, mechanical systems, electrical and mechanical resonant systems, light, heat and viscosity, which are covered in PHY 101 and PHY 102. However, emphasis should be placed on the basic physical techniques for observation, measurements, data collection, analysis and deduction.

Historical development of conventional and digital photography (photographic time-line), photography as science and art. The conventional and digital camera and its components. Introduction to basic working knowledge of the photographic process, material, equipment, chemicals and other dark room activities i.e., development of the printing of films. The field of depth. Students at this stage are expected to learn about the types of photography and the purpose of photography. Comparative analysis of the digital cameras as a photographic tool and the human eye. In camera movement the students are expected to address and understand the issues of; physical movement, effects of movement, practical uses of movement and side effects of movement in relation to human beings and environment. Finally, students are expected to record images either in panoramic or single views which they will process in the darkroom and print out as product. Brief introduction to the principles of animation will be taught, with basic practical exercise and group projects.
