The SDA

The Student Design Association (SDA) is a student-run organization representing current students and alumni of the University of Alberta who have taken design courses during their degree.

Serving as a bridge between students and our local design community, we actively work to stimulate community involvement, create partnerships with other organizations, and organize events for students and staff.

Our primary goal is to support design students in creating long term foundations for success by providing support and facilitating opportunities to foster connections throughout the year.

Our two primary events, Built and our annual Grad Show, function as platforms to showcase the talent and innovation within our student design community.
