The 2024 USC Graduate Architecture Portfolio Workshop, a virtual event where a curated selection of current Master of Architecture students will share the successful portfolios that helped them gain admission the USC School of Architecture, and provide insights into the creative process behind the process of designing, curating, and producing their portfolios. This session will feature two break out rooms: one for students with previous architectural experience and another one for those with no previous experience.

• Breakout room 1 will feature students from the 2-year advanced standing M.Arch program, who hold previous degrees such as Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies, Bachelor of Arts in Architecture, and Bachelor of Science in Architecture, bringing a wealth of foundational experience.
• Breakout room 2 will feature students from the 3-year M.Arch program, who entered with no prior architectural training and backgrounds in diverse fields, including music, marketing, computer science, and biology.

The workshop will also include portfolio and application advice specific to applying to the USC School of Architecture from Alvin Huang, Director of Graduate Architecture at USC. This is a unique opportunity for prospective applicants to receive firsthand guidance on crafting compelling portfolios that reflect a wide range of experiences and perspectives in architecture.
