Rochester Institute of Technology's College of Art and Design is where creativity and innovation merge to create exciting opportunities for students and faculty alike. The five schools that make up the college offer a portfolio of distinctive programs of study, many of which are internationally acclaimed. 

For those with artistic, creative and professional interests, amazing possibilities await in the College of Art and Design. From centuries-old methods of producing fine art to the latest in digital media, the college has a comprehensive selection of majors in many disciplines related to visual communication and imaging. It is a place where the lights are on 24 hours a day, where you can't travel through the halls without pausing - to study an exhibit of photos by your fellow students, to marvel at the symmetry of the artisan's bowl rising from a clay-spattered wheel, to glance into a computer lab at the animation or design projects, or to watch graphic media students operate millions of dollars' worth of printing equipment like pros. 

The specialized studios and wide range of equipment at RIT are among the most complete and current of any university's in the world. Additionally, faculty members are active professionals who can teach both the art and business of a particular major field of study. They show students how to create, critique, reproduce and display their work while providing the support and insight they need to succeed.
