We support students through a lecture series featuring speakers
that speak to the myriad of ways that designers are integrating
research into a variety of design sub-disciplines. Students
participate in a yearly retreat at one of the UC Davis Natural
Reserves.
The UC Davis Design Museum opens its 2024-2025 season on Nov. 1
with “Sonic Horizons: A Sensory Immersive Video Installation.”
The exhibition runs through Nov. 22.
Devised and curated by graduate student Maral Salehian,
this multi-screen installation showcases nature videos centered
around landscape themes. This sensory-rich immersive experience
aims to promote well-being and inspire a deeper connection to
nature.
The Design Museum, part of the College of Letters and Science and
free to the public, is in 124 Cruess Hall.
The Alberini Family Speaker Series is supported through
an endowment by the Carlos and Andrea Alberini Family Foundation.
It brings renowned innovators and thinkers in design to campus
and in virtual formats to inspire students and encourage
community engagement and learning.
