THE FUSE

Designers today need to do it all. While honing specialized design skills, they are often required to learn marketing, social media strategy, and more. Today’s professionals need to be able to move fluidly between visual communication, product and service design, entrepreneurship, typography, technology, facilitation, research, and cultural strategy—often on the same day. That’s why programs that are designed to help students integrate these modes of practice are so important. At the School of Visual Arts (SVA) in New York City, a new multidisciplinary MFA design program does exactly that.
