Mastery
Challenges

The Design Dojo’s unique Mastery Challenges develop professional skills and allow you to earn points outside of the major projects.

  • For validation, challenges need to be performed in-person.

    You can submit one challenge per day - and the challenge should be applicable to the current app/project.

    The goal for each of these challenges is true mastery, so no partial credit (but you can try again then next day).

    The window for submitting a challenge ends on the penultimate week of the semester.
