Italy, Milano / Rome / Turin / Venice

Overview

Established in Milan in 1966 by its current President, Francesco Morelli, IED offers thorough, effective training, based on the theory and practice of design culture, to young people who want to embark on creative careers in Fashion, Design, Visual Arts and Communications.

IED is now the only international design training network. It offers three-year post-secondary school courses, advanced courses and Masters.

Milan, Rome, Turin, Venice, Madrid, Barcelona and São Paulo house the four Schools of Design: IED Fashion Lab, IED Design, IED Visual Arts and IED Communications.

Although all the schools and all the campuses apply the same training method and have the same underlying objectives, each one has its own strong, autonomous personality, deriving from roots that delve deep into its host city’s hinterland, production fabric and culture.

Altogether, some 9000 students from more than 90 different countries enroll in courses at IED every year. The school where they study is an international one, where the quality of the lecturers and the strong bonds with the business community that have always been at the focus of the IED training method enable creativity to blend with design culture.
