COM 33800 Portfolio and Career Foundations

This course provides students with a structured environment to showcase both personal design style and technical skills as it pertains to the field of Interactive Media and Web Design. Students will refine self-selected pieces, and develop an interactive platform in which to display the best of their work. Interviewing, résumé building, and job hunting are closely tied to the distribution of a portfolio and thus are a pivotal part of the course content. Students will conclude the course with a professional résumé, digital portfolio, and set of skills that will assist them in securing both a valuable internship and future career. Lab fee may be required.
