📣📣 Attention to all Info Design students 📣📣 we are hosting a portfolio design workshop on Nov 26, 2025

This workshop is open to every student but we believe that 2nd years will benefit the most from this event. We will have some 4th years showcasing their portfolios, some basic instructions and things to keep in mind when crafting yours, then you will be able to ask questions and view other portfolios to gain inspiration and understand the process.

We encourage every student to come join and maybe ask questions.

This is a great opportunity to give you a leg up on applying for internships!

And stay tuned for our next portfolio workshop, where alumni and industry pros will be available for questions and comments!
