Connect talent, knowledge and creative practice.
Four ways to start a conversation with IAD.
Student Internship
Learn where the work happens.
Connect classroom learning with supervised experience in a professional setting. Internships give students an opportunity to understand studio workflows, contribute to projects, practise teamwork and develop a clearer sense of their creative direction. Organisations can connect with IAD to discuss hosting students, the skills required and suitable project responsibilities.
- Project experience aligned with a student’s discipline
- Mentoring, feedback and professional working practices
- Discussion of duration, responsibilities and learning outcomes
Academic Collaborations
Share knowledge. Expand perspectives.
Explore academic exchanges that bring different disciplines and approaches into conversation. Colleges, universities and educators can discuss joint workshops, guest lectures, faculty interactions, research-led projects and shared learning activities with IAD. The aim is to broaden creative thinking and create meaningful connections between teaching, research and practice.
Academic partnerships
Academic partnerships offer a framework for sustained collaboration between IAD and other educational institutions. Potential areas include joint curriculum development, faculty exchange, shared workshops, collaborative research and interdisciplinary student projects.
Institutions can explore ways to share expertise, learning resources and facilities to enrich creative education. A proposed partnership begins with a discussion of shared goals, academic responsibilities, available resources and expected outcomes, so that activities can be shaped around the needs of both institutions and their students.
- Joint workshops, seminars and learning sessions
- Faculty knowledge exchange and interdisciplinary dialogue
- Collaborative research and student project proposals
Industry Collaborations
Bring professional practice into the studio.
Create a dialogue between education and the changing needs of the creative industries. Studios, agencies, brands and practising professionals can propose live briefs, expert sessions, portfolio reviews or other collaborative activities. These engagements can introduce students to professional expectations while giving industry participants a space to share experience and explore emerging ideas.
- Live project briefs and practical design challenges
- Expert talks, masterclasses and portfolio feedback
- Conversations around skills, recruitment and professional practice
Design Solutions
Start with a challenge. Explore the possibilities.
Bring a design question or project brief to IAD for discussion.
