This year’s theme, The Next Generation, considers that the college class of 2019 is the first to be almost completely Gen Z, and will be hitting the workforce in a few short months. Meanwhile, design in society has been rapidly evolving – from the institution of executive designers in major corporations, to explosively popular design documentaries on Netflix. Join us as we explore ways to think about our roles as designers amid these changes.
All are encouraged to participate in a fast-paced day of design learning. It is a chance for students and professionals to stretch their understanding of an ever-shifting design world. Converge 2019 will feature talks by influential design professionals from diverse backgrounds and interactive skill-building workshops facilitated by industry leaders. Learn what’s changing in design and how you can prepare for the future of the profession.
