What are Master of Arts (Second Level Academic Diplomas) for IED?

The world is increasingly complex, interconnected, limited in resources and thus it became the scene of growing economic and social injustices.
In this scenario, it is essential to imagine design as a transformative platform to start taking care of the world, genuinely, with listening and attention.

The power of imagination allows designers to respond to the changing needs of society and the environment, to adapt to emerging technologies and to formulate new design questions by anticipating future challenges.

Starting from these ideas, we have built the training offer of our Master of Arts (Second Level Academic Diplomas) according to the concept of DesignXCommons, in the sense of design applied to the regeneration, integration and sharing of common goods.

By designing for the common good, students broaden the technical skills acquired in the undergraduate three-year courses, deepen their independent critical thinking with respect to the urgent challenges of the present and develop a methodological approach capable of provoking significant changes, recognizing the interdependence between design decisions and the impact on people, society and the environment.
