Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design, an art college in Vancouver, BC, Canada, is named for Canadian artist Emily Carr.
The school was founded as the Vancouver School of Decorative and Applied Arts in 1925, and later known as Vancouver School of Art: Decorative and Applied (1933), Vancouver School of Art (1937), Emily Carr College of Art (1978), and Emily Carr College of Art and Design (1981). In 1995, the school was renamed Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design.
The school received degree-granting authority through the Open Learning Agency in 1989. It received independent degree-granting authority in 1994, meaning the school could offer degrees in its own name.
