We welcome you to The Art Institutes, an established system of 35 schools located in major cities throughout North America. The Art Institutes offers master’s, bachelor’s and associate degrees, and diploma and certificate programs that specialize in the creative arts. Students receive a practical, focused education that prepares them to begin their careers with on-the-job skills employers need.
Design Programs
What’s your passion? Logos, print ads in magazines, smart product design, or a room that welcomes you with brilliant color? You’re a visual communicator and have been for as long as you can remember. Here, you’ll be inspired by new ideas and faculty who’ll help you evolve into a creative professional, portfolio in hand.
Media Arts Programs
Media Arts is movement. It’s creating and capturing images to move your audience. Maybe you see yourself working on animated films. Or working on the new release of a best-selling video game. Maybe that’s you, behind the lens, getting the story that will be broadcast into people’s living rooms. If you want to work with evolving technology to express yourself and your art, this is where you belong.
Fashion Programs
Fashion designers feed the visual animal in all of us. Color, fabric, or the elegant lines of a jacket help us to express ourselves with wearable art. If fashion designers are the inspiration behind the clothes, then visual merchandisers are the first to capture our attention as we go on the prowl for this season’s latest styles. Fashionistas who want to go places take their first steps here.

The International Culinary Schools at The Art Institutes are North America’s largest network of culinary schools with over 30 locations in the US and Canada.
