pParsons The New School for Design announced a new MFA in Transdisciplinary Design set to launch in Fall 2010.

pJamer Hunt will direct the new program. Armed with a PhD in Anthropology and current experience as the chair of Parson’s Urban Design Program, Hunt is ready to explore an impressive range of design problems: “From reinvigorating the public sphere to fostering sustainable everyday practices, the MFA in Transdisciplinary Design will create an environment for learning and experimentation.”/p
