During the event, students studying Diploma in Interactive Design and Diploma in Interior Design programmes displayed their best design artwork and portfolios produced throughout their 2-years study period. The 3-days event, open to the public, was well attended by First City UC\u2019s executive management team, members of the faculty, representatives from companies within the design industry who are looking for employable fresh talents and external examiners to assess the portfolios. Many of the students\u2019 proud parents also turned up to view the outcome of their children\u2019s education journey.<\/p>\n<p>For these students, the showcase, themed \u201crepre-sent\u201d was an avenue for them to put on display works which represent the essence of who they are: a collection of their skills, talents, personalities and ambitions. During the course of their studies, they have worked on many presentations for their coursework, therefore the showcase was a way to symbolise the formal presentation of their hard work and passion. The showcase was made even more memorable for the staff and students as this was the first event held at the faculty\u2019s new White Canvas Gallery since its move to the Phase II building in March. First City UC students, especially from the Design faculty have been able to enjoy the new facilities as it offers more lecture rooms, studios and laboratories with state-of-the-art equipment, a new library, IT Centre, MBA Centre, cafeteria, on-campus accommodation and indoor recreational courts.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/firstcity.edu.my\/media\/uploads\/media\/diploma_showcase_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"460\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/firstcity.edu.my\/media\/uploads\/media\/diploma_showcase_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"460\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><em>The diploma students were very proud of their artworks on display during the showcase, of which they were very involved in organising.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Mandy Chan Wai Mun, the president of the student committee said she was thrilled to organise and host this showcase together with her peers.
