Our undergraduate programs are designed around traditional and emerging opportunities in the professional world. We emphasize the work patterns, technologies, tools, and techniques that will prepare graduates for a seamless transition to their lives as working designers and artists. 

Graduate students at KCAD develop through a process of guided exploration. Examining the traditional and progressive, the intuitive and intellectual, the individual and collaborative, the expressive and technical, the theoretical and the practical, students find a vision that's truly their own.

KCAD's High School Dual Enrollment program is a great way for high students who are motivated and creative to get a jump on college. We currently offer dual enrollment programs at several high school locations throughout the State of Michigan as well as offering on-campus course opportunities. You can even receive tuition support through the State of Michigan School Aid Act.

KCAD is always looking for new opportunities to get outside the classroom and connect with designers, artists,  educators, makers, and problem solvers of all kinds who understand and appreciate the power of creativity to transform ourselves and the world around us.
