Pennsylvania College of Art & Design’s facilities provide students with classrooms for each discipline which are outfitted with appropriate industry-standard equipment, as well as large teaching studios for students working in more traditional media. The entire college has wireless internet access available for students working on laptops and digital projectors are available for presentation purposes in each classroom. The College's Design Center facility supports students and faculty as they integrate digital technologies in their learning, teaching and professional lives. It also enables students from all majors to connect their creative energies in one dynamic environment. In addition to well-equipped classroom space, the College also offers gallery space for hosting exhibitions by regional and national artists and ample room in the hallways to display and critique student artwork.
The college’s library features a wealth of current resources – from hard-copy to digital media offerings – to facilitate research and creativity. For those who wish to study in groups or socialize, PCA&D offers several student lounges, the largest of which is a spacious two-story atrium on the first floor of the south building.
