Master of Visual Studies students are required to participate in an internship over the summer term of their first year. Though compulsory, the internships are flexible in form. They are chosen by the student to ensure that they receive access to a resource, experience, or knowledge that will benefit their Thesis or subsequent work in an exchange with the internship host. The internships will necessarily be diverse in nature with opportunities based on the research and production areas of the students in both Studio and Curatorial Studies.
