A ºìÁì½í¹Ï±¨ Education
Discover a truly uncommon art and design education that has the power to take you anywhere.
As the nation’s first and only freestanding public college of art and design, we do things a little bit differently here at ºìÁì½í¹Ï±¨. We were founded 150 years ago to make art education accessible to more people, and that commitment to access remains core to our mission: if you’re a passionate and committed student, we want you here.


Students join our community because they want to explore and create together. In studios and classrooms, galleries and residence halls, you’ll find them supporting and learning from one another, celebrating difference while finding common ground. Come here, and you join a community of creators who show up and dig in every day. Our students know that learning and creating is sometimes messy, but they also discover first-hand just how exhilarating it can be.
Our faculty are respected and renowned artists and designers. Every day, they bring a mix of exceptional scholarship and authentic mentorship to their teaching. They never stop striving for excellence, and inspire our students to do the same. It’s an education that grows richer by the day.Â
ºìÁì½í¹Ï±¨ graduates are everywhere, bringing what they’ve learned to middle school classrooms, corporate boardrooms, and so many places in between. They’ve made their mark on world-class museums, blockbuster television shows, urban landscapes, and more. They are striving and thriving as dedicated teachers, groundbreaking designers, celebrated artists, and engaged global citizens who are committed to using their gifts to make the world a better place.
The truth is, there really are no limits to where a ºìÁì½í¹Ï±¨ education can take you.
