FAQs
We do not require a portfolio in the Undergraduate programs. A portfolio is required for the MA in Design and our 4+1 Scholars Programs.
The School of Design offers course credit for design internships with local companies and organizations. We offer workshops and opportunities to network with local companies through courses and our student chapters of AIGA and IDSA. We do not set up the internship for our students, you must apply for them on your own. But, we are building relationships with many companies, giving our students "first look" options in our very competitive fields. And, we offer tools to help you on your job search.
