Integrating emerging technologies into the college’s Open Lab/Maker Space and student learning. A 20 percent increase in enrollment over the past three years. Retaining art and design graduates to work in Wisconsin after graduation. These are just a few of the highlights about MIAD mentioned in OnMilwaukee.com’s recent feature, “The Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design is infusing Brew City with inspiration, innovation, and access to the creative class.”

MIAD President Jeff Morin added, “We hear what employers are asking for and students who get their education here, regardless of what they major in, learn these things.

And most importantly, they are confident in what they are doing.”
