Course description |
This module requires students to curate the academic work produced during their BA/MA degree and present it in the form of an integrated academic portfolio $ú defined by the Architect&© Registration Board as: $ùa comprehensive chronological record of student&©s design project work together with all coursework, including reports, dissertations, sketch books and any other evidence of work, (with project briefs and examination papers), that have been assessed as part of the degree leading to an award of Part 1&©. The work to curate and present the portfolio is independent of the work from the modules themselves. The module emphasizes the design and conceptualisation skills required to integrate and present diverse knowledges and media. It is introduced during Stages 1 & 2 to ensure that students document their work as part of a personal development plan.
