MFA.DESIGN. Open Day at VCUQ...


We're having an Open Day here at VCUQ next Wednesday, February 16, starting at 6 PM...

Our program is in many ways quite unique, as not only is it the only accredited Masters degree in design of the Gulf region, it is also structured to push boundaries in regards to what the practice of 'design' entails in the region as well as establishing a program that introduces something unique on a more pervasive, world-wide, scale... The facilities here are also in line with some of the other top schools around the world - we have the only 'Material Library' (and Materials Curator) of the MENA region, a large Green Room for filming/ video production, a decent Digital Fabrication Lab, as well as a great (uncensored) library. The program is also unprecedented in that the faculty to student ratio is about 1:2 (one faculty to each two students), as we only accept six (6!) students into each year of this two year program...

The whole MFA.DESIGN. faculty will also be present on Wednesday to present the program and answer any questions visitors might have...
