DAC 401 - The Digital Design Profession

This course teaches students to prepare for one of their most pressing challenges upon graduation: to choose and then enter the digital design profession that fits best with their goals. Design thinking strategies and tools provide the framework for this exploration, which may cover creativity, project conceptualization, the role of the artist, grant proposals and pitches, among other topics. Throughout the course students will create a variety of career preparatory materials as they engage in workshops, group discussions, interviews, and professional reflections.
