This seminar is designed to introduce students to the process by which they can make informed decisions in selecting a career and identifying an educational program which will lead to that goal. Students begin the quarter by assessing, in a small group setting and with the assistance of facilitators familiar with careers and with RIT programs, their own skills and working styles. They then research careers that match their personal profiles. Finally, they research academic programs that lead to the careers they have identified. This includes interviewing faculty and administrators in campus programs as well as professionals working in the fields. This seminar is required for RIT Exploration program students. Class 1, Credit 1 (offered quarterly)

As digital mapping and imagery continue to evolve, and we negotiate the cartographic paradox, mapmaking techniques have begun to emphasize features as an artist might paint a picture, or a work of literature identifying elements of space or place in the text. The art of mapping is joining the ranks of other established art forms, while still trying to retain the applied side of the map-a central conundrum that drives our project. Through panelists'work in environmental and imaging sciences, art and literature, we will initiate an interdisciplinary "contact zone" in which we lay out new directions incollaboration between theoretical and empirical mapmaking. We intend to offer various perspectives on the way maps generate creativity and cultural change, as they build sustainable partnerships within the academy and community. No prerequisite. Class 4, Credit 4 (offered occasionally)
