In this culminating course, students will integrate the knowledge and skills developed throughout the certificate program to complete an individual capstone project and create a professional portfolio. The course will support you in developing, refining, and presenting design work that reflects your interests, strengths, and emerging professional goals. 

In Graphic Design III, you will receive guidance in portfolio development, presentation strategies, and professional practices while strengthening your ability to communicate design concepts and processes. Through project completion and portfolio creation, you will prepare for entry-level professional opportunities, continued learning, and the presentation of your work in a professional context.
