Overview
Starting with a single location in Chicago in 1977, the International Academy of Design & Technology (IADT) has become a network of campuses located in some of the most culturally and creatively vibrant cities across the United States. For students who don’t live near a campus or simply prefer the convenience of online education, the Virtual Campus of IADT Online offers a truly innovative student interface that allows students to study, socialize, network and acquire industry-current knowledge and skills from any Internet-connected computer. While program offerings vary by location, each campus is designed to prepare students for professional opportunities and career success in their select design fields.
