Graduate Preparatory Courses

Give yourself an edge. Hone an essential skill before you begin a graduate program of study. Pratt’s Grad Prep courses support your academic success with foundational classes curated and taught by Pratt’s distinguished faculty.

Two students work closely on a detailed architectural model in a studio setting. One student is applying glue to a small piece while the other observes and assists. The workspace is filled with supplies, tools, and additional models. Natural light enters through large windows in the background, illuminating the creative environment.

Architecture Immersion Studio

Learn the key ideas, techniques, and concepts in Architecture and Landscape. Taught by faculty from Pratt’s department of Graduate Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Design programs, students will emerge with a command of essential skills and a small body of work suitable for use as the foundation for a graduate application portfolio. The studio culminates in a design exhibition and a carefully curated, individually developed portfolio that documents each student’s work, preparing students for applications to graduate architecture programs. The course is suitable for anyone interested in a focused introduction to the discipline.

Fashion Immersion Studio

Build foundational skills in sewing, patterning, and draping while learning the vocabulary used in the making of fashion, clothing, and soft goods. Taught by faculty from Pratt’s department of Fashion Design, this course is of particular value to those with little to no sewing or clothing construction experience. This is a non-credit preparatory course intended to facilitate a smooth transition into the major.
