ROCHESTER, N.Y., May 12, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- After a three-year pause because of the pandemic, students, faculty, staff, and alumni from Rochester Institute of Technology's (RIT) College of Art and Design will descend on Manhattan this week for NYCxDesign—New York City's annual celebration of design that attracts hundreds of thousands from around the globe—which is marking its 10th year.
Key Points:
- "'RIT Success by Design' will celebrate the past, present, and future of design at RIT by highlighting its impact on the global design community through our remarkable alumni, current student successes, local and global assets, and future ambitions for growth," Owen said.
- "It's great for RIT to be back at Design Week, and it is significant for the university to have such a formidable presence at one of the world's leading showcases for design."
- RIT is among only a select few universities and design schools to be invited to Design Week in New York City.
- For Metaproject 11, senior industrial design students spent last year designing products for Staach, which focuses on functional sustainable design.
