Emily Carr University of Art and Design (ECUAD) is a public post-secondary institution in Vancouver, British Columbia, specializing in art, design, media, and creative technology. Named after the renowned Canadian painter and writer Emily Carr, it offers undergraduate and graduate programs across disciplines such as fine arts, industrial design, interaction design, animation, film, and critical and cultural practice. The university is known for studio-based, interdisciplinary learning and strong ties to Vancouver’s creative industries. Originally founded in 1925 as the Vancouver School of Decorative and Applied Arts, the institution evolved through several names before receiving university status in 2008.

ECUAD is one of Canada’s leading art and design universities and attracts students from across Canada and internationally.
