School Description
When Philip J. Steele founded Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design in 1963, his dream was to provide students with an education based on traditional art and design principles in an environment that fostered personal meaning and growth. From years of working as an artist and teacher, he understood that in order to provide a quality education it was essential that students have the opportunity to study with professional artists and designers who could both teach the courses and guide students as they sought to push the boundaries of creativity and innovation. The College continues to reflect this vision today.
Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design offers fully-accredited BFA degrees in: Fine Arts, Illustration, 2D Animation, 3D Animation, Interior Design, Art Education, and Graphic Design + Interactive Media.
RMCAD is located on twenty-three wooded acres at the foot of the Rocky Mountains in Lakewood, Colorado, in the west-central part of metropolitan Denver. Looking east from the campus you can see downtown Denver’s skyline, and looking west you can see the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Whether you’re into skiing, snowboarding, hiking or just soaking-up Denver’s 300-plus days of sunshine each year, the Rocky Mountain Front Range is a great place to live. And, with a population of over two-million people, Denver offers a multitude of ways to spend your free time from museums to concert halls to shopping centers and entertainment districts.
