This course offers students an opportunity to acquire experience in a real media or art-related organization/company before they graduate, or to reach out, collaborate with and participate in local art exhibitions, educational programs and activist events. Students' participation in the outreach events should be reported and evaluated in the form of oral and visual presentation, as well as written notes from the hosting organization/company.

The placement of individual students will be negotiated between the student and the course leader. While some positions will be curated by the course leader, students are encouraged to use their own networking to suggest companies and organizations for their own placement, with the course leader's permission.
