USC Iovine and Young Academy

The USC Iovine and Young Academy seeks to empower the next generation of thought leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs through a unique educational experience focused at the intersection of four essential areas: the arts and design; technology; venture management; and communication. These new literacies for the 21st century combine to create a new disciplinary expertise that will prepare our graduates to adapt quickly to rapidly changing work landscapes, and to rethink, reimagine, and reapply. Our students will develop high-level problem solving abilities and skills that can be applied across a broad spectrum of industries, fields, and areas of endeavor, and a mindset that embraces lifelong learning.
