We Were Designed to be Unique.
Within the College of Design a student experiences the important advantages of a small college which include a community, an identity, and a familiarity.
We Also Boast a Strong University.
College of Design students enjoy the resources that come with being located on the campus of North Carolina's largest university. NC State affords access to a diverse student body with broad interests; university clubs and activities; varsity sports; and a national reputation for excellence.
A Tightly-Knit Design Community
Design students are treated like individuals and with the respect they deserve. They are invited to call professors by their first names and engage with faculty and staff as fellow designers. Our small size allows us to take part in deep and thorough design exploration together.
