At the Institute of Design and Communication, we train designers who think critically, act innovatively and design responsibly for society<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Design expertise and skills, user-centred methods and field research are all important components of our degree programmes. By working together in interdisciplinary groups, students become practiced in cooperating with business, design agencies and cultural institutions. A range of prizes and our successful graduates all demonstrate the benefits of this approach. It is these characteristics which make our programmes unique, both in Austria and beyond.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Research fields<\/h4>\n

The institute’s research focusses on Interaction and learning in real and virtual environments<\/strong><\/a>. The study programmes are dedicated to game-based learning and serious game design, i.e. the development of games for knowledge transfer. Another focus is on professional training simulations that utilise real-time 3D environments and real-world interfaces.<\/p>\n
