The Design Management Program (DMP)
was created to bridge the disci plines of
design and business management. The
two-year program provides an executive
education more focused than an M.B.A.
on the special needs of design leaders
managing design firms or managing
design teams in creative industries.
Design Management classes are
designed for working professionals
and delivered by working professionals
from the worlds of business and
design. Participants come from a variety
of disciplines, including industrial
design, interior design, graphic design,
fashion design, communication and
information design, interactive media
design, and architecture.
The program’s academic calendar
is modeled after successful executive
E.M.B.A. programs. Its schedule of
alternating weekends (Saturdays and
Sundays) allows participants to carry their
full job responsibilities while they study.
The program provides designers with
the opportunity to:
▶ (^) Join a learning community of
professionals with diverse design
backgrounds.
▶ (^) Develop a strong skill set in the
discipline of business and the
management of design.
▶ (^) Explore emerging trends and draw
from new ideas converging across
design disciplines.
