At one of the nation’s leading technological universities, you’d expect its College of Architecture and Design (CoAD) to lead the profession of architecture and design in adapting and integrating emerging technologies into its curriculum. Indeed, debuting in summer ’25, CoAD will help upskill undergraduate design degree holders and those with perhaps a few years of professional experience with a graduate degree in Design and Technology.
Students can take the next step to career advancement. The Master of Arts in Design and Technology introduces you to new methodologies, research-driven processes, and hands-on studio work to create innovative, impactful projects in graphic design, game design, interior design, product design, or architecture.
A flexible hybrid learning format combines in-person studio work with online studies to accommodate diverse learning needs and professional schedules. The Master of Arts in Design and Technology degree was structured so that LTU undergraduates can graduate with both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in just five years.
Philip Plowright, Ph.D., professor and chair of the design department, explains, “Our new graduate-level design courses teach our students to become comfortable with new technologies that help us as designers to create sustainable, smart, efficient designs as well as research up-and-coming technologies not yet in mainstream use. In this way, LTU is opening up pathways for those who want to be leaders in our industry and our profession and shape the future of design.”
