Each year, College of Design faculty organize itineraries and lead groups of students from ASU and other universities to many places around the globe. The experience gained from seeing great architecture and art, and ancient cities and modern designs firsthand is invaluable to a young designer or planner. ASU offers more travel experiences through its Studies Abroad office.
