Cultivate your Creativity in a Hands-On Environment
In our programs in the School of Design, Arts, and Communication, we’ll teach you how to learn more about your design field of interest while we prepare you to learn to meet the real-world challenges faced in today’s creative industries, businesses, and organizations.
No matter what field of design you’re interested in, we’ll will give you a strong framework on which you can build a successful career. You can develop your individual voice and vision by applying what you learn through internships that connect you with professionals in your chosen field. You’ll also benefit from our new location on the Owings Mills North Campus, a facility that has state-of-the-art equipment and settings for you to hone your skills in your major. Our goal is for you to graduate as an emerging, practicing professional who is prepared to hit the ground running.

The Mill Agency at Stevenson University provides an opportunity for students to work with clients in a collaborative, student-driven environment while experiencing an agency setting. Learn more about The Mill Agency.
Students from The Mill Agency worked with the Friends of Patterson Park on a rebranding of the park’s iconic Observatory; they created a new logo, promotional materials, and worked with local ice cream shop BMORE LICKS to create an exclusive new flavor, all to reintroduce the Observatory to the public.
