The private art and design college, established in 1906 as the Detroit Society of Arts and Crafts, specializes in creative disciplines including transportation design, illustration, graphic design, and fine arts. CCS maintains close connections with Detroit's automotive industry, with many graduates working for major automotive manufacturers in their design departments. The college provides apartment-style student housing in its Art Centre Building and the Taubman Center, while their facilities include professional-grade studios, workshops, and the Wendell W. Anderson Jr. Gallery, which regularly exhibits student and professional work.
