Nationally accredited degree programs, a world-class faculty, and state-of-the-art facilities prepare students for traditional and alternative careers in the public and private sectors. Required and elective courses balance practical and theoretical knowledge, and they teach innovative design that synthesizes art and science.

A CAP education paves the way for a lifetime of challenge and success, building skills for professional work and nurturing a contemporary world view of society and culture.
