Academic Advising and Career Services Programs and Activities
A degree from the Kansas City Art Institute is a door that opens to a wide array of career opportunities from a highly respected, professional college of art and design that has been in the business of producing the next generation of creative thought leaders for more than 130 years.
Our students receive such intensive, demanding training and education that many go on to become highly accomplished professionals within their field. Our former students are represented in the most prestigious museum and public collections around the world, they are cultural innovators, they hold leading-edge positions in virtually every creative field imaginable, and they have been recognized with the highest honors from Guggenheim Fellowships to Academy Awards.
