The College of Arts, Media and Design (CAMD) is located in one of the world’s premier cities for arts, media, and design—and we’ve developed our academic programs and co-op experiences to take advantage of everything Boston has to offer.
Northeastern’s campus is just steps away from the city’s cultural hubs, from world-class museums to centuries-old architecture to industry-leading newspapers.
CAMD and Northeastern invite artists and experts to campus, enabling students to better connect with leaders in their fields.
“As a strategic practice engaged to positively impact people’s lives, the emphasis is on articulating the connective tissue that ties together sequences of interactions between people, artifacts, and their world.” - Kristian Kloeckl, Associate Professor, Experience Design
