Artistic design work | D0049A

This course component is an independent, in-depth project worth 22.5 credits, in which the student plans, carries out, and presents a comprehensive design project based on a clearly defined research question.

The work includes both theoretical analysis and artistic practice, and is conducted in dialogue with a supervisor, with the possibility of collaboration with an external partner. The project may range from identity and communication solutions to conceptual design developed in response to real-world needs.

What collaboration with your organization can look like:

• Contribute real design challenges for students to work on
• Receive creative proposals and solutions grounded in current design methods and fresh perspectives
