For the purposes of considering request for Reasonable Adjustments under the Disability Standards for Education (Cwth 2005), and Student Support and Engagement Policy, academic requirements for this subject are articulated in the Subject Overview, Learning Outcomes, Assessment and Generic Skills sections of this entry.

It is University policy to take all reasonable steps to minimise the impact of disability upon academic study, and reasonable adjustments will be made to enhance a student's participation in the University's programs. Students who feel their disability may impact on meeting the requirements of this subject are encouraged to discuss this matter with a Faculty Student Adviser and Student Equity and Disability Support: http://services.unimelb.edu.au/disability

This subject offers a further development of the semester one program, broadening and consolidating the student's grasp of methodology and its application in their work. As in Printmaking Studies 1 the methods and materials component still forms a significant aspect of this subject with the introduction of additional processes, techniques and other technical matters. Group projects and individual work tasks may be set to develop skills in specific printmaking procedures. Formal individual and group tutorial sessions are held on a timetabled basis with students to critique their work and evaluate their progress. These are undertaken within the major study and across the departmental structure.
