As a student in this program, you will acquire several practical skills that can greatly impact your job prospects. We will go far beyond the scope of design to teach you how to define and solve problems, coordinate complex projects and thrive in interdisciplinary teams.

- Graphic designer,

A wide range of professional opportunities will open up for you.

You may even want to set up your design studio.
Programme Structure
- Integrated product design
In this laboratory, you will find out what a systemized design process is all about and how to design products. Our main focus here is creativity and innovations, but we also prioritize sustainability, the natural environment and a responsible approach to design – one that takes into consideration the long term influence a designer has on the environment.
- Research and interaction design
You will deepen your knowledge of user interface design, virtual reality, and mixed reality here. Perception, semantics, interaction – these are the key areas we will explore together in this lab.
- Social design
Designing involves responsibility. New services, products, and systems of visual identification can transform the surroundings. They can initiate new behaviors and trigger innovations. In this lab, you will find out how to engage potential users in the creative process.
