Industrial Design Royal Academy of Art, The Hague

Overview

Students at the Master Industrial Design of the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague research and develop projects in which they question and redesign the conventions of the industrial system towards a more diverse, sustainable and meaningful future. 

We believe in the discursive and transformative potential of design. Through design research designers can pose questions, search for answers, envision futures, and prototype scenarios. Research is therefore at the center of the Master Industrial Design programme. Aesthetically distinctive and outspoken products and projects are developed based on research that defines the position of the designer in the professional field.

Collaborative projects with partners in and outside the design field form the basis of our programme allowing students to get involved and connected to urgent and relevant themes and discourses in the design field and the world at large. Through making, sharing, reading, prototyping, listening and writing students shape their own projects and professional position and practice.

Career Prospects

The Master Industrial Design provides a research-based education and most of our graduates go on to be practicing designers. After graduation, you will be able to position yourself in the field of design.
