At Billy Blue College of Design at Torrens University Australia, we champion our students. That’s why we showcase their work to potential employers at our annual graduate exhibition, INTRO.
What is INTRO?
As the name suggests, INTRO introduces design graduates to industry people. The annual exhibition showcases our students’ creative genius to the community – and to their future profession or employers. Throughout their studies, our young designers take control of their own professional development in studios that mirror the places in which they’ll work. Emerging as innovative thinkers and ambitious game-changers well-prepared to make their mark, they use INTRO to foster connections with industry leaders and future-proof their careers.INTRO 2021 now available on-demand
Featuring industry guest speakers and rockstar alumni and academic hosts. You’ll be able to chat with attendees and view the creative showcase. Get to know our most resilient graduates yet, and the ideas shaping our future.In Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and online, we don’t have students in classrooms; we have emerging designers taking control of your own professional development in work studios and professional spaces that mirror the places in which they will work after they have completed their educational journey with us. On that journey, they’ve worked with practicing designers and dedicated education leaders to evolve into innovative thinkers, ambitious new design leaders, agitators and game-changers.
A series of small graduating shows won’t cut it – the big picture needs a big frame so we will showcase once a year to promote our finest designers and their creative genius to the community and, importantly, to the profession.
