Design professionals in the 21st century must learn to navigate a fluid, networked, global culture. Parsons The New School for Design is developing a range of dynamic, cross-disciplinary, graduate-level programs, which place design practice and research at the center of that global context. The first of these innovative programs is launching in fall 2010.

MA Fashion Studies
In this groundbreaking MA program, launching in fall 2010, students will engage in the evolving field of fashion studies. Using an interdisciplinary approach, they will study fashion as object, image, text, practice, theory, and concept and develop a critical understanding of its complex global intersections with identities, histories, and cultures in the contemporary world. Learn more at http://www.newschool.edu/mafs.

MFA Fashion Design and Society
This advanced studio-based program in fashion design, launching in fall 2010, will encourage students to confront real-world challenges in the fashion industry while developing their capacities not only as outstanding designers, entrepreneurs, and scholars, but also as engaged global citizens. Learn more at http://www.newschool.edu/fds.

MFA Transdisciplinary Design
In this experimental graduate program innovative thinkers from the world of design are brought together with professionals from other fields to find design-based solutions to the complexities of life in the 21st century. Pending NY State Approval. Learn more at http://www.newschool.edu/thinkparsons.
