Design work continues to draw some of the show’s biggest crowds. Every spring, faculty members in our three design departments—Industrial Design, Interior Design and Communication Design—invite representatives of leading North American manufacturing companies and design consultancies to this exhibition of student work. Company reps meet with the students, see the quality and breadth of their design work, and interview them for jobs and internships. Get details at cia.edu/springdesignshow.
