Case Study: Clemson University achieves campus-wide creative learning and career-ready skills with Adobe InDesign

Clemson University - Customer Case Study

Clemson University wanted to give all students across disciplines access to industry‑leading creative tools, build a dedicated collaborative space, and better prepare graduates for a media‑rich workforce. To meet that challenge, Clemson partnered with Adobe InDesign and deployed Adobe Creative Cloud for enterprise—using apps such as InDesign CC, Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC—alongside the Adobe Digital Publishing Solution and a new on‑campus Adobe Digital Studio.

Adobe InDesign helped implement a campus‑wide rollout that gives 21,303 students, faculty, and staff access to desktop and mobile Creative Cloud apps and DPS, enabling interactive eBooks, apps and multimedia projects (for example, the Decipher magazine app now in the Apple App Store). The initiative improved teaching and cross‑disciplinary storytelling, expanded student creativity and collaboration, and strengthened graduates’ career readiness while creating a replicable model for Adobe and higher education partnerships.
