The Parsons Integrated Design Program (IDP) equips emerging design leaders, innovative artists, and strategic creatives to build transformative careers in a changing world. IDP encourages experimentation through interdisciplinary research and design approaches across various scales. The program fosters the development of purpose-driven creative practices by combining studio work, challenging university courses, and professional design collaborations. Students graduate with practical, holistic skills and lasting creative networks. With advisor support, IDP participants navigate program requirements while crafting personalized learning journeys that align with their artistic and career aspirations. Students work alongside faculty to curate their pathway from approved electives. IMPORTANT: IDP students must proactively plan their three-year curriculum, ensuring prerequisite requirements are met.
