To fulfill the mission of developing Thai designers, CIDI Chanapatana has taken a leap frog approach by developing an integrative design program using a curriculum and faculty by a cooperated academy from Florence , Italy . This is an endeavor to enable Thais to be trained by the approach and techniques that are believed the best of the world in term of design without paying more tuition fee and accommodation cost taking the same programs in Italy.

The heart of CIDI Chanapatana diploma program is our revolutionary integrated curriculum and our tradition of interactive classroom. Faculty brings their expertise and international experiences to transfer to their students and wait for them to argue, discuss, and raise interesting questions. Here, it is individual inspiration that matters the most. We believe in the credo that imagination is beyond knowledge. Our curriculum will discover each own inspiration, shape them, and help them materialize into real commercial products and projects. Meanwhile, necessary skills to be a successful designer are taught and practiced with advice form our professors.

CIDI Chanapatana international diploma program is a 4-semester, 2-year program. CIDI Chanapatana student attends class between September to December and January to May for two years. There will also be a discipline-specific workshop in each semester. In May, ID and FD students will help organizing a hallmark annual thesis exhibition.

CIDI Chanapatana international diploma programs are complemented by short courses, special lectures, workshops, and renowned executive speaker sessions, to enhance student knowledge and perspective.
