NYSID offers unique educational opportunities for established design professionals, those new to the field, and individuals interested in exploring a new career. Through our Institute for Continuing and Professional Studies we offer a diversity of noncredit workshops, undergraduate courses offered for credit, and professional development classes carrying CEUs and LUs, all taught by NYSID’s accomplished faculty of interior designers, architects, visual artists, and art and design historians.
If you are new to the design world and would like to "test the waters" by taking some of our undergraduate courses before you apply for admission, you can register for up to twelve credits of classes on a nonmatriculated basis. If you decide later to apply to a program, the credit and grades you receive in these classes will be carried over to your new program!
For those looking to further their careers with professional development courses, NYSID offers continuing education classes on a varitey of topics and of varying lengths.
