Vocabulary

major concentration

Dear All:

------------
In the “Subject” box please, title your portfolio with:
Your Name, Major and if applicable your Concentration (Fashion - Design).
------------

About the word "concentration," I checked the dictionary, and found a definition which goes:

the focusing of a student's academic program on advanced study in a specific subject or field.
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/concentration

So, the concentration is the intended purpose of the course I took?
or the focus of the content of the portfolio?

Thank you.

Thank you so much for the shift reply!

So, I should define the purpose according to the professor's course syllabus, right?

The instructions were written with the supposition that the applicant had more than a single course under his belt. Concentration is your specific area of study in a college program. For instance:

Major: Fine Arts -- Concentration: Fashion Design
Major: Biology -- Concentration: Behavioral Ecology
Major: English -- Concentration: The Elizabethan poets
