Bachelor's Programme in Industrial Design

While studying

Throughout the programme, you will work on real-world projects with companies, organisations and authorities, tackling challenges from digital solutions to medical aids and industrial equipment. Through sketching, prototyping and hands-on work in our workshops and digital labs, you will bring your ideas to life.

The programme encourages exploration, experimentation, and play, allowing you to forge your own path as a designer. Collaboration is key, with small classes fostering close connections and a creative, culturally diverse environment. Guided by professional industrial designers, you will develop research-based, critical thinking and challenge systems and norms to become an agent of change. The student-teacher relationship is supportive and non-hierarchical, with teachers acting as mentors.

Design techniques

Between major project work, you will take in-depth courses in several design techniques:

• Sketching and visualisation techniques
• Form and colour studies
• Model and workshop techniques
• Communication strategies
• Digital 3D modelling (CAD)

Career opportunities

The programme’s close ties with companies – including a ten-week internship – make students attractive in the job market. Graduates go on to work as industrial designers in diverse fields – from consumer products to healthcare, mobility, and digital experiences. Many join leading design consultancies or international companies, while others pursue entrepreneurial paths or continue to advanced studies.
