The IDEAS Capstone Project is typically pursued in the final two semesters at UIC, building upon the knowledge and skills acquired throughout the undergraduate years. To this end, all IDEAS majors enroll in a two-semester, sustained practicum that focuses on the production, discussion and theorization of subjects encountered throughout coursework in the College of Art, Design and Architecture (CADA) and the larger community of UIC.
