For students and alumni of HDAD and HDCS at Parsons & Cooper Hewitt. Instructors, museum staff, and other friends of the program are welcome here too.
This prestigious two-year master’s degree program, which Parsons offers in conjunction with Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum, brings an object-focused, practice-based approach to the study of European and American decorative arts and design dating from the Renaissance to the present. Housed for more than 30 years at Cooper Hewitt — the only U.S. museum devoted exclusively to historical and contemporary design — the program enables students to work directly with the museum’s collections and its curators, conservators, educators, and designers.
This program is part of Parsons’ School of Art and Design History and Theory (ADHT).
