MICA’s Design + Innovation Hub is building a new collaborative approach that drives commercial and social innovation—linking studio learning to real-world impact.
The Hub is an applied learning environment where students, faculty, and partners across business, nonprofit, and public sectors transform creative ideas into solutions with tangible impact.
Through experiential learning, entrepreneurship, applied research, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, the Hub creates pathways from classroom to market and community—preparing students to lead in a rapidly evolving economy while strengthening Baltimore's creative economy.
