We started in a tiny classroom in 2012. Now we're a growing community of over 300 designers.

What is Design Co?
Design Co is a pre-professional student organization at UC San Diego that bridges the gap between designers and industry. Our mission is to cultivate a space that fosters opportunity and growth as an inclusive community of designers.
Check us out on social media or find us on campus to see what new things we have coming up soon! :)
What does the “Co” in Design Co mean?
The “Co” means Community, Collective, and Collaborative, which is everything we stand for. We believe that fostering an inclusive design community means collaborating with others and growing with everyone.

So what do you have for me?
By combining workshops, events, and other career growth opportunities, we're tackling the challenges of breaking into industry head-on and building a strong design community while we're at it. And yes, it includes you too.
I'm sold — how do I join?
Anyone can be a member of our community. We host events weekly, on Wednesdays at 6:30pm at the Design & Innovation Building Room 208. Sometimes things change, so we suggest following our Instagram page or Facebook page to stay up-to-date.
