Senior Portfolio & Presentation

The primary audience is the TCID program community which includes the program faculty and employers.

Your purpose is to demonstrate who you are as a professional, and to illustrate what makes you “you” when compared to other candidates in the field.

Senior portfolios are due at the time of your portfolio presentation, which occurs at the end of the spring semester in TCID 4090.

We hope you'll keep the portfolio updated and current, a sort of digital record of everything about your professional history. We hope you'll also consider sharing the portfolio with students who come after you in the program. 

The senior oral presentation is a recorded 10-15 minute public presentation of your professional identity as documented in your work. You will present to the TCID program director, the instructor of TCID 4090, other faculty and members from the advisory board. Members of the advisory board include individuals from area businesses and organizations.

Your purpose is to demonstrate who you are as a professional. The portfolio is not the subject of your presentation as much as it should provide a means for you to represent your professional identity. Your purpose is to highlight your best work, most of which appears in the portfolio. 

Practice, of course! Be prepared for questions. Dress in business casual. Be familiar with the room and the equipment you'll use. Plan an alternative format for your presentation in case technology fails.
