Overview
The Design MA programme aims to train strategically-minded design professionals. Using a proactive entrepreneurial mindset they will be able to seize opportunities to design and implement projects to shape an inclusive and sustainable world for future generations.
The training includes two specialisations
- The Strategic Product Innovation specialisation focuses on the research and design of human-scale products and related services that reflect cultural and societal needs in a complex way.
- The Smart Mobility specialisation explores responsible solutions to address the mobility challenges of the future through designing a vehicle or transport system.
The ““Triple Bottom Line”” concept, built around the three key areas of “People, Planet, Prosperity”, is a central and defining element of the syllabus. Based on this concept, students focus on developing design projects integrating social, environmental, and economic aspects.
Professional competences
Diverse student teams will work on addressing future challenges in a variety of design assignments in collaboration with market partners, developing a truly expertise-based, experimental, critical, and creative attitude.
The individual diploma project developed throughout the 2-year-long programme provides the opportunity for in-depth research and formulating mature design responses based on the insights. Throughout the process, students can improve their design competencies, character and professional focus under personalised mentoring.
