For over a century, Georgia Tech has led the way in teaching design. The College of Design approach naturally includes technology and research. This means that delving into the science and engineering behind design is equally as important as the art of each of the disciplines we teach. We emphasize human experiences, from products and soundscapes, to living in buildings and cities. Our design research encompasses today's most pressing human and built environment issues, including accessibility, sustainability, smart cities, and ground-breaking efforts in spatial analysis and music technology. We offer graduate programs in architecture; building construction; city and regional planning; industrial design; and music.
