The six-week summer Career Discovery program at the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) welcomes people-- from recent high school and college graduates to seasoned professionals-- who are grappling with questions like these. And not just people considering a career in degsign or planning, but people with a broad spectrum of interests and remarkably diverse plans and goals. What they have in common is the drive and desire to seek the answers to those questions.
Participants in our program commit themselves fully to a path of intensive studio work, lectures, workshops, and field trips. Deeply immersed in a culture that is both challenging and rewarding, they experience what education and work are like in the design and planning professions. They emerge, many of them exhilarated, with a more profound understanding of the possibilities ahead and the choices they will make.
