Today is an exciting time to be an artist, designer or architect. The creative terrain of our contemporary world demands a new educational paradigm. The Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University provides a rigorous education in architecture, art and design with the outstanding collection of a world-class art museum and the unparalleled resources of a leading research institution. We recognize that design and the visual arts play significant roles in inspiring solutions to social and environmental concerns and have formulated an educational model that is flexible and attuned to the global realities of our complex century.
