Design for Climate Action at the College for Creative Studies

The Design for Climate Action course at the College for Creative Studies equips students with an awareness of environmentally conscious materials and processes.


School: College for Creative Studies
Course: Design for Climate Action
Location: Detroit, Michigan, USA
Course dates: September 2023 to May 2024 (MA); September 2023 to May 2025
Application deadline: 15 January 2023

The Design for Climate Action MA and MFA programs foster an understanding of zero-waste materials and processes, environmental and biophilic interventions, community co-design initiatives, and circular economic thinking.

In the heart of Detroit, a city rejuvenating from the ground up, students work on projects that mirror real-life challenges.

As they pursue solutions that are design-driven and, where possible, use stakeholder co-design, they further their knowledge and skills—as well as their understanding of community engagement.
