For students in the Bachelor in Design, this means one thing: the sky's the limit. Our students are constantly observing, questioning, and challenging the world that surrounds them.
In their program projects, they design, redesign, and test ideas and objects until their idea comes to life.
Throughout the development of these projects, students are supported by cutting-edge tools and technologies provided to them by IE University.
