Graduate experience

“I feel like I’ve found my path as an artist. It’s a long path and I’m at the very beginning, but now I have a sense of where I’m going.”

A culture of creative collaboration

At RISD graduate students interact meaningfully with both the world and one another. Through studio courses, interdisciplinary seminars and public programs, they engage in provocative discourse and cultivate critically informed creative practices. In the immersive atmosphere they find here, degree candidates discover that taking the time to question and probe, to push and pull and wrestle with what motivates them can lead to unexpected outcomes.
