This course will elaborate upon the graphic and communication conventions established in the fundamental architecture curriculum. Intermediate investigations in two-dimensional representation and photographic manipulation are developed to enhance presentation skills within a professional and academic context. This course will also prepare students for being successful in co-op work terms through understanding Co-operative and Experiential Education policies and procedures, using Waterloo Works, preparing résumés, interviewing effectively, and meeting employers' expectations. The topics covered in the course culminate in an architectural portfolio, résumé, and readiness for job interviews.
