Bachelor Programme in Industrial Design

About this programme

The Bachelor Programme in Industrial Design supports students in taking ideas from vision to reality through a creative and life‑centred design process. The programme emphasises sustainable and norm‑critical design practices that address social and ecological challenges, encouraging students to imagine responsible and resilient futures. Throughout the programme, students develop and refine artistic abilities, physical and digital skills, analytical thinking and critical reflection. Your first year focuses on the essentials of industrial design, combining sketching, prototyping and practical techniques in both workshops and digital labs. In the second year you broaden your perspective by applying interaction, systems and participatory design, while beginning to explore service design and research‑informed methods. In the final year you bring your skills together, define your voice and deliver an independent project that reflects your ambitions as an industrial designer. Throughout all three years you collaborate on live projects with companies, public organisations and civic partners, learning to respond to complex real‑world contexts with curiosity, creativity and a strong sense of responsibility. All programmes are housed in industry‑like design studios where each student has an individual workspace. The shared spaces, including workshops, computer labs, paint rooms, the photo studio and the libraries, create supportive and innovative learning environments shaped by a strong collaborative spirit.
