Degree Programs

You have the talent, drive, and the creativity to be a successful artist or designer. Now you want to take the next step to improve your skills and broaden your prospects.

MCAD offers three degree programs—and a wide range of majors and specializations—to help you achieve your goals. And because we're a small school that encourages students to cross disciplines, there's a lot of interaction among the students pursuing each of the degrees—which makes you an even stronger artist or designer, no matter what path you pick.
