Description:
Design Studies offered at the School of Form is a unique and innovative combination of humanistic and social components. The program has been thoroughly prepared under the supervision of Lidewij Edelkoort, the legendary director of Design Academy Eindhoven. The School of Form consists of four faculties (Communication, Domestic, Fashion and Industrial Faculty) and four humanistic/social profiles (Anthropology, Philosophy, Psychology and Sociology). Such division enables students to become both highly skilled designers and sensitive researchers understanding the future and humans needs.
EDUCATIONAL PROCESS
During the first year of studies, students are required to complete 4 seven-week long modules, each module offered by a different faculty. Having been exposed to a variety of courses in numerous specializations, they can eventually make a conscious choice concerning the faculty they want to study at. During the next two and half years of studies, students have an opportunity to not only gain pure academic education, but also to carry out projects with real business partners, to discover the basics of entrepreneurship and to acquire presentation skills etc.
