Resources

Studio Supplies: Upon arrival at Y ARCH, each student receives a set of studio supplies. These materials - including paper, lead and pointers, model-making supplies, and more - equip students for basic hand drawing and 3D exercises. (Note that students may find it necessary to purchase additional materials for their individual studio project.) Y ARCH does not provide a sketchbook, encouraging each student to choose a size and style that suits him or her. Please visit the Cost page for more details on the required sketchbook.

Computing: For digital work, the School will provide all computers and software necessary to complete assignments. Y ARCH tutorials will introduce students to programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Autodesk AutoCAD.

Books and Readings: A required and recommended reading list will be made available to students before the program begins. During the course of the program, Y ARCH professors will issue required or optional readings as handouts or provide access to these materials through the UIC library.

Events: Y ARCH tuition also includes tickets to all scheduled tours, events, and lectures. Around three times each week, either lunch or dinner will be provided for the group in conjunction with these activities.
