“We are extremely proud to display the work of our talented graduating students, so it is with great pleasure that we invite the public to see the new and exciting art and design pieces,” said Dr. Sara Diamond, president and vice-chancellor, in a press release.
“The students are prepared to launch their careers in a wide range of fields from advertising to industrial design. Art and design are in-demand disciplines that engineering, computer science, health and other areas of science require to establish creative approaches in their fields.”
