Seminar renews TROY鈥檚 collaboration with Changzhou Institute of Technology & Zaragoza University
At the end of last year, 2021, and the beginning of this year, 2022, Associate Professor Chris Stagl delivered a 3-week seminar to two of 好色先生TV鈥檚 International partner schools, the University of Zaragoza in Spain, and Changzhou Institute of Technology in China. The opportunity stemmed from the desire to keep international experiences at the forefront of our Art & Design department even amid the pandemic. Professor Stagl modeled the program around the idea of an introductory typography course that he teaches here at TROY and worked one on one with students as they began to experiment and experience how we approach typography as design and communication in the states. Once the structure and projects of the seminar were developed, it was marketed to schools without a typography focus. The results were outstanding.
