MxD highlights
We have a 20+ year history in graduate design education, first offering an MFA in Art with a focus in graphic design, and now the MXD—focused on participatory and codesigning with people in context—using our research expertise and interest.
bfa highlights
The BFA program promotes a rich and intensive studio experience allowing the undergraduate student to take art and design to the maximum depth possible in preparation to be an artist or designer, or to continue further study in art and design via a graduate program, or to even begin a career path directly related to the arts.
