Demonstrated Mastery
Students demonstrate degree mastery by proving to faculty their body of work meets all program objectives.
Workplace Read
As part of meeting degree qualifications, students complete internships, community projects and apprenticeship experiences. These cultivate their ability to succeed in the workplace with both soft and hard skill proficiency.
Proven Innovator
Students are required to innovate. To graduate, they must create a working proof of concept of something that has never been done before. We call this their Student Innovation Project.
Skilled Creator
Students are required to participate in real projects that solve problems in the market and improve industry and community. These occur in collaborative, year-long teams and in ongoing, rapid-fire jams, challenges and competitions.
