It will approximately take one month to review and process applications. My bachelor's degree is not design. We welcome applicants from a variety of disciplines, as that adds a healthy range of perspectives to our programs. While a majority of applicants come from Design and English, we have accepted those in Architecture, Drama, Psychology, Computer Science, and Business. Some of students' theses abstracts will be available soon online.
Summer is the ideal time for some form of summer employment.
The Design Office keeps a list of companies interested in summer hires, which is readily available to interested students. The School of Design also sponsors Career Days at the end of February, which brings to campus some of the leading design companies to interview interested students. Summer hires are often arranged through this event. In the past, we have had graduate students intern at Intel, Fitch, Microsoft, Interval, and Apple. Both programs offer ample opportunities to take elective courses in other departments.
