“I have studied business before but I see my future in design. I chose this course because it combines both the areas I wanted to immerse myself in.

I really like how we get one-on-one discussions with professors who are or have been players in the field for a long time.

Since I've been here, I have discovered several ways to integrate business in craft and design. I used to think it was simply ‘create and sell’ but there's so much more to it. From design to production to retail and distribution, this course explores the whole process.”
