Partnerships create exciting possibilities. We collaborate with academic and non-academic partners to create multi-year initiatives around topics of mutual interest. Together we craft opportunities for research, learning, and engagement that take varied forms, from off-campus teaching to research, faculty exchange, co-taught courses, symposia, and exhibitions.
Recent partnerships have focused on such topics as material research and traditions of making. Through these kinds of partnered efforts, we elevate discourse, educate our communities, and create platforms for meaningful dialogue and creative exchange.
RISD Global is fully remote, but we still have several ways to connect! Schedule a 1:1 Virtual Advising Appointment, chat with us during Drop-In Hours (without an appointment), or simply reach out via phone, email, Instagram, or GChat.
Over the past three years, RISD Global has been developing unique approaches to global engagement through partnerships and collaborations across the world that engage multiple external partners, three or more RISD academic departments, and over two or more years of sustained activity.
Though not an official program, RISD does welcome interest from potential self-funded Visiting Scholars who wish to spend one semester or one academic year at RISD conducting research that connects to the specific expertise on RISD’s campus.
Each year, RISD hosts numerous visitors and visiting delegations representing universities and art & design schools across the globe, as well as those representing embassies and consulates, non-profit agencies, arts spaces around the world.
