In the fourth semester, our students complete their master’s thesis, including their own design piece – flexibly, independently of location and with a practical focus. This enables them to develop an individual portfolio project that showcases their personal design signature and strengthens their career opportunities.<\/p>\n

Further projects can be found on our Instagram channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
