    • Annotation of the Higher Education Institution The Master’s course requires and encourages the further development of intellectual and creative analysis of the contents of the Bachelor’s programme. The aim is to offer professionally relevant contents for competent ‘shaper’ personalities in terms of high design and technical qualifications. This is to enable them to take on responsible positions in industry as well as in crafts and the arts. The close link between realistic design processes and specific product realisations defines the quality of the project-based teaching. The course always accounts for the individual preferences, interests, previous experience and specialisations of the students.
