A partnership between RISD and Brown University, the Master of Arts in Design Engineering (MADE) is an intensive program that fosters innovation at the intersection of design and engineering. Collaboration is central to the program, as students work with a range of experts to envision alternative frameworks for addressing public health, education, climate change and more. Students develop effective solutions through iterative making and testing and express ideas through the objects they create, towards an ultimate goal of improving lives.
