Industrial Design course
The Bachelor’s degree course in Industrial Design at OTH Regensburg offers a holistic, non-specialized basic design course that builds on prominent technical principles and makes references to architecture. The Regensburg model is characterized by the special combination of typical offerings of a polytechnic with features of an art college. The qualification objective of the course is to enable students to practice their profession through a specific combination of acquired knowledge and practiced creativity. The curricular structure of the Bachelor’s degree course in Industrial Design is based on the division into four module areas: design, theory, technology and electives. The structure and composition of the course are subject to continuous change. The vision of a future Master’s degree course in Design at OTH Regensburg will also continue the Bachelor’s program and motivate a new, transnationally oriented approach to design teaching.
