The Post-Baccalaureate Design Certificate offers a foundational exploration of interdisciplinary design. This 30-credit program usually spans fall and winter terms, combining studio work with liberal arts and science classes. Aligning with NSCAD's comprehensive BDes and MDes curriculum philosophy, this certificate serves as a versatile qualification rather than focusing on a single design specialization.
