Student Research

Students conduct their own research and creative activities as well as take part in projects with their faculty.

Created in collaboration with Artist-in-Residence Kaneza Schaal and writer and illustrator Christopher Myers, CARTOGRAPHY draws on their work with refugee youth from around the world. Pictured here is the company  of CARTOGRAPHY (L-R) including Janice Amaya, Noor Hamdi, Malaika Uwamahoro, Vuyo Sotashe, and Victoria Nassif.
The company of CARTOGRAPHY, a play created in collaboration with Mason Artist-in-Residence Kaneza Schaal and writer and illustrator Christopher Myers, coordinated with the Virginia Serious Game Institute and Mason Computer Game Design program on elements of augmented reality.

This can include participation in performance development with professional artists via the Artists-in-Residence program, which is facilitated by relationships with the College’s performing arts centers (the Center for the Arts in Fairfax, VA, and the Hylton Performing Arts Center in Manassas, VA). Opportunities are available and there are funds to support such work through a number of scholarships and special awards. 

Students who are interested in pursuing research opportunities within the College should contact their academic advisor.
