Recommended Tools
The MBA in Design Strategy program, and the business world it serves, relies upon digital communications. Accordingly, the program requires its students to have access to a laptop computer and recommends certain software programs that represent the standards of business work and communications.
Students are required to use a laptop computer with a minimum 13" screen and WiFi access. Students can choose any Windows or Macintosh laptop (the latest models of Macintosh computers also run Windows).
Laptops
The college recommends the 15-inch MacBook Pro. Students may opt for the 17-inch MacBook Pro if a larger screen is desired.
Educational Technology Services offers a MacBook Pro bundle, and educational discounts and payment programs are available from Apple when ordering through CCA.
