alwaysbeenarambler asked: Maryland Institute College of Art doesn't have an actual scientific illustration course, but it has a partnership with Johns Hopkins where you can take classes there at no additional cost. We've had a number of students who've essentially made their own scientific illustration major by picking up some JHU classes.

Thanks for information!
