  • Photos from past or current "heritage experiences" related to research projects, tasks, or work experience.
  • If you have published an article or written a notable paper, feel free to include the online link (for the paper) or a strong abstract.
  • Additional photos, sketches, etc., that relate to your education and provide an overview of your competencies and skills

​You may also include additional elements that reflect who you are beyond your work, such as key skills (software, languages, etc.), or relevant hobbies and interests.

Keep your portfolio focused, professional, and personal—this is your opportunity to showcase both your work and your personality.
