Core Values
We seek to instill in our students abroad theoretical and cultural knowledge, general and specialized design practice, community involvement, and an awareness of global issues. At the same time, we encourage the ability to critically reflect on all these topics.
Diversity and Gender Equality: The School promotes diversity. We maintain gender equality at all levels and open our gates to students of diverse backgrounds. These values are reflected in our curriculum and in our students and faculty demographics.
Community Engagement: The School of Design and Innovation was among the first to conceptualize interior design as inseparable from its social, political-economic and cultural contexts. Faculty and students are committed to using their knowledge to benefit society. In fulfilling this ideal, we actively engage in various community projects and in socially-oriented research.
Global Awareness: Design today is confronted by a set of major transformational developments: climate change, globalization, technology and urbanization. The Department has invested considerable efforts in teaching and researching how these issues transform and motivate design and environmental awareness
