The relationship between a faculty advisor and student is important for the success of students in the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts graduate programs.
Graduate advising is managed by the school or department offering the degree program. Current students should contact their faculty advisors with any advising questions. Prospective students are encouraged to discuss their interests with a faculty member prior to applying.
