PDES 404 Presentation & Portfolio

3 credits 90.0 hours
400 level undergraduate course

This studio seeks to enhance written, verbal, and visual design skills, enabling them to make effective presentations to their intended audience and construct a portfolio tailored to their career interests. Students will develop research into a narrative, build a body of work, develop a process through which that work is accomplished, and communicate what is interesting about the work. With an emphasis on various communications media (diagrams, mapping and illustration, typography and graphic design, photography, film/video/animation, and interactive media) the course is intended to provide the student with the ability to provide his/her work with context, appropriate form, and explanation. In addition to developing clear, consistent arguments and artifacts, students will be encouraged to find their own personal methods and approaches for presenting their work and expressing themselves through their design.
