FREE: Is Sustainable Design for you?

About the MA Program

For many people, 2021 brings hope for a better future. For some of you, 2021 brings a new commit to helping create that better future! If you’re that kind of person, you might be wondering if our fully MA in Sustainable Design program might represent that commitment.

If so, please join us online next Tuesday 16 February 2021 at 1:00pmCT for a FREE informational webinar about MCAD’s fully online MA in Sustainable Design program.

During the webinar, you’ll learn about the program, the courses you’ll take, and how to apply.  You’ll also get to ask a program graduate why they joined the program, what their experience was like, and what they are doing with what they learned.

Even if you can’t make the live webinar time, go ahead and register and we’ll send you the recording.

In the meantime, we invite you to explore these FREE resources:
