SUMMARY OF MISSION STATEMENT Emily Carr Institute of Art + Design is a learning community devoted to excellence and innovation in visual arts, media arts and design. Profile of Emily Carr, Canada's Premier Institute of Art, Design + Media Since 1925, Emily Carr Institute (ECI) has grown from a small art school into a post-secondary institution with over 1300 full time students. Our central goals have evolved to include the provision of many different disciplines interacting with one overarching aim, to produce the best artists, designers and media creators in Canada and British Columbia as well as internationally. ECI is a specialized professional/academic institution devoted to studio based creative work. Our mission is to develop informed creative artists and designers and media practitioners who can contribute their creative output and research to Canada's economy and to its growing knowledge and cultural sector. ECI is a multidisciplinary Institute where artists, designers, technologists, researchers, and educators interact and collaborate on projects and programs that foster a cross-fertilization or transfer of specialist knowledge and practices which contribute to shaping art, design, and technology, their uses, and users. Emily Carr is an institution devoted to creativity in the service of innovation, research and learning. Our graduates are among the most sought after in the cultural areas, from visual artists who can work in any chosen field to designers who work in the growing new media industry in BC and Canada. Our media creators work in the entertainment industry, as independent filmmakers, and at some of the most important animation companies in the world. Many of our artists and designers and media graduates have become the most famous practitioners of their craft in the world. Our research initiatives have resulted in grants of over five million dollars over the last three years as we become more involved in the development of the Creative Industries in Canada. |
