Two postgraduate pathways — the MS in Computational Design and the PhD in Computational Design — both embedded in an active research culture at Carnegie Mellon University's College of Fine Arts.
Study Computational Design at Carnegie Mellon
The Computational Design program investigates creative opportunities and critical issues at the nexus of design and computation. Fundamentally interdisciplinary, it mobilizes Carnegie Mellon University's computational strengths critically towards design, architecture, and other creative disciplines. We offer two postgraduate pathways — an MSCD and a PhD-CD — both embedded in an active research culture.
Master of Science
A two-year, research-focused program preparing students for leading industry positions and advanced studies. Students produce a thesis documenting a novel contribution to knowledge in Computational Design.
