Emily Carr University of Art + Design is a school of students, teachers, thinkers and makers unlike any other – at once laser-focused and infinite by practice and nature. Established in 1925, we are the only specialized, accredited, public, post-secondary university in British Columbia solely devoted to education and research in the creative sector and its associated knowledge economy. We merge research, critical theory and studio practice in an interdisciplinary environment, strengthening our work by the integration of our personal and professional practices. Our strategy, facilities, partnerships and resources are intentionally student-centred to foster dialogue, expression and open connections in support of the next generation of creative and cultural leaders.
Our home base in Vancouver – a young, vibrant city, known for its verve, beauty and unparalleled livability – reflects our core belief: Creativity will always be our greatest natural resource, individually and collectively. Inspired by this belief, our programs offer undergraduate, graduate degrees, and applied research in the fields of visual arts, media arts, and design, as well as professional certificates, pre-university, and lifelong learning in these areas.
Our vision for our campus at Great Northern Way on the False Creek Flats of Vancouver, BC is a place so extraordinary that it celebrates the creativity of the human spirit in all its forms of expression. This is the first purpose-built institution of art + design in Canada and is unlike anything seen before, captivating and motivating a new generation of thinkers, creators and makers as well as welcoming the community at large to experience all that we are.
We mark the 2015/"16 academic year by celebrating our 90th Anniversary of innovative and transformative teaching. We take pride in the vision, dedication, passion and contribution to the local, national and global art, design and media communities. We take our place among the top post-secondary art, media and design institutions in Canada and we embrace our growing global stature among our esteemed educational peers.
We continue to pursue excellence in honour of our namesake artist Emily Carr, with her true spirit of the avant-garde – fostering creativity, experimentation and innovation, with respect and reverence for diversity and indigenous cultures. We do this via our unwavering commitment to be student-centred and research-focused, keenly engaged with our student body, teaching and research faculty, staff and our community.
Our partnerships in the business, philanthropic, arts, performance and general community have never garnered more support, been more inspirational or more gratifying than they are today. We go forward, keenly aware of the strength of our shared history and collectively excited by the vision for the future of our institution.
