Parsons The New School for Design

New York, New York
Parsons focuses on creating engaged citizens and outstanding artists, designers, scholars and business leaders through a design-based professional and liberal education. Students learn to rise to the challenges of living, working and creative decision making in a world where human experience is increasingly designed. The school embraces curricular innovation, pioneering uses of technology, collaborative methods and global perspectives on the future of design.

A pioneer in art and design education for more than a century, Parsons is a diverse community of independent thinkers motivated by the prospect of challenging conventions and finding solutions to complex problems. Critical thinking, collaboration, reflective practice—these are the skills you’ll develop in the studio, during seminars, and in discussions with friends at one in the morning.

As a student, you’ll benefit from instruction by some of the most accomplished artists, designers, architects, photographers, illustrators, scholars, and critics in the world, and parsons’ reputation and professional connections are unmatched. Our alumni rank among the leaders in their fields. internships provide unique entrée into professional life, and partnerships with all kinds of organizations, from start-ups and nonprofits to some of the biggest names in industry, afford a wealth of opportunities for aspiring designers.
