Prof. Hazel Gamec Receives Inaugural Icograda Education AwardProf. Hazel Gamec received the inaugural Icograda Education Award at Design/Culture: Icograda World Design Congress in La Habana, Cuba.
Created to recognise achievement and innovation in design education by an individual, Prof. Gamec was selected from a call for nominations to the Icograda Education Network member institutions.
A graduate of the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD), she also studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Prior to her current position, she ran an award-winning design consultancy in Minneapolis and taught at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design.
Professor Gamec was teaching at Osaka University of Arts, Japan, on exchange when she first visited New Zealand.
The visit, which included a stop at the Wanganui Community College, led her to apply for a MCAD faculty enrichment grant to develop and implement an international design programme in Wanganui, New Zealand.
Today, Prof. Gamec is the Academic Manager of Wanganui School of Design of the Universal College of Learning in Wanganui, New Zealand.
She started the Wanganui School of Design in 1987 and has built it up to be one of New Zealand's premier design schools.
