Introduction
Study a Bachelor's in Design in the Netherlands
If you are creative, curious, interested in experimenting with images and converting ideas into visual concepts, then the Bachelor of Design may well be the right programme for you. We educate talented and ambitious students to become experimental designers with a critical attitude. Our graduates are fully prepared for a career as a designer.
Joining the booming design sector
As a designer, you will be joining the creative industry, one of the most booming sectors in the Netherlands and abroad. Not only will you master the skills you need to become a professional designer, you will also develop a critical attitude, reflecting on your own work and that of your fellow students, and your own style and authenticity. Making mistakes is part of your development into being a professional designer. By experimenting, failing and starting again you will create your own style, your signature.
You will also learn to develop and protect your authenticity as a designer. We provide you with the best facilities and counseling. You work together with other students, to learn how to function in an (interdisciplinary) team. You learn to play with images and discover how your visual abilities can create solutions to issues in society.
Additional activities and opportunities
During your studies, you will get every chance to enrich your knowledge and experience by taking part in project weeks, excursions and OffCourses. We provide a great many additional activities, such as masterclasses, exhibitions, and festivals. Vocational training is also part of the curriculum, as well as the possibility to study abroad for a semester. To master your skills and carry out your assignments we provide a wide range of facilities, technical workshops, and courses.
Experienced teachers from the professional field
You will be taught by experienced teachers who also work as professional designers. Most of them still run their own practice and offer students the opportunity to build their own professional network. We also invite guest lecturers, who will give you a totally fresh view of the world of design.
