Emily Carr University of Art + Design is a school of students, teachers, thinkers and makers. Established in 1925, we are the only specialized, accredited, public, post-secondary university in British Columbia solely devoted to education and research in the creative sector and its associated knowledge economy. We merge research, critical theory and studio practice in an interdisciplinary environment, strengthening our work by the integration of our personal and professional practices. Our strategy, facilities, partnerships and resources are intentionally student-centred to foster dialogue, expression and open connections in support of creative and cultural leaders.
It’s one of Canada’s top design school and have had great designers coming out of the programs, working in the industry. Many of my alum are working at Facebook, Google, Apple, Squarespace, etc.
