Sustainable design Pre-Professional Program, Ecosa Institute
The Ecosa Institute spring semester Pre-Professional Program is for people interested in exploring the design arts and sustainability without enrolling in a professional design school. There are no prerequisites and at the end of the semester, participants have a foundation on which to pursue further education and careers in the diverse, growing field of sustainable and ecological design. Participants travel to both ancient and modern sites exemplifying sustainability throughout Arizona and meet with leaders in the field.
Everything, from the water bottle you use to the city you drive through, is designed by someone. Designers have a powerful impact on the health of both human and natural environments. The Ecosa semester-long programs teach how the problem-solving power of design can provide solutions to the critical environmental issues of our time. We offer an in-depth, experiential immersion semester in which students explore the exciting challenges of bringing human activities into balance with the natural world.
