Portfolio review is a way to evaluate a student's design ability and knowledge of design concepts based on work from the foundation level courses. Portfolio review assures that students have acquired an understanding of essential design knowledge and are prepared to move on to more advanced coursework.
Design is a competitive and demanding professional discipline. Future professionals need to gain experience in presenting their work to others and in having their work reviewed.
