parsons in new york
your caMpus is new york city, the world capital of art, culture, Business, fashion, and
intellectual inQuiry.
a parsons education isn’t just a series of isolated classes—it’s a fully immersive
learning experience in which the city itself serves as an urban design laboratory.
our distinguished faculty is a team of accomplished artists, designers, architects,
photographers, and critics that could have been assembled only in a design capital
like new york. outside the classroom, students have access to unparalleled internship
opportunities and industry partnerships, which open up many possibilities for
entrepreneurship and professional success.
situated in the heart of Manhattan, the greenwich Village campus is a major cultural
destination in its own right, a venue for exhibitions, performances, and lectures by
some of the world’s most celebrated artists and thinkers. in addition to enjoying all
the resources on campus, students have access to the galleries, showrooms, and
events of new york city, the nexus of the international art and design worlds. in every
respect, parsons gives students the opportunity to excel at the center of it all.
