Do you have questions about the Master's degree programs at the School of Design? We usually hold one Master's information day per semester, but since we know that questions about Master's programs are much more differentiated than questions about Bachelor's programs, we offer you explicit personal appointments for the Master's programs - individually tailored to you and your concerns. Whether you want to know more about the content of the degree programs, the admission requirements or the application processes - we take the time to clarify all your questions so that your DesignPF Master's degree program is a 'perfect fit'.

In a personal appointment, you will not only receive the information you need, but also valuable tips on how you can make the most of your strengths and interests. Our contact persons from the various Master's programs will be on hand to help you make the right decision for you. You can find the contact persons on the respective pages of the Master's programs or right here below. We look forward to getting to know you and accompanying you on your journey!

A day at Design PF

We at Design PF are a small family. If you would like to spend a day in your desired study program, we would be happy to make that possible. It is not always possible and unfortunately not at all in the Transportation Design program, but please contact the academic staff in the study program and discuss individually what is feasible!

 


DesignPF information services explained

General student counseling / individual application advice

If you have general questions about the application process, you are welcome to make an appointment with our colleagues from the StudiCenter or the Student Advisory Service. They will provide you with information about all degree programs and the application process: topics of discussion may include, for example, admission requirements, the aptitude test, questions about pre-study internships, the recognition of training or similar. Depending on the topic, you will then be referred to the relevant colleague.
Telephone number StudiCenter / Student Secretariat: +49 (0) 7231 - 28 6724.
If you have individual questions about your studies, you are welcome to contact our student advisor Alexandra Wößner.

 

Course-specific information

If you have specific course-related questions (e.g. about curriculum content), you can also get in touch directly with the contact persons for the degree programs (usually the research assistants); you can find the relevant contact information on the pages of the degree programs.

 

Portfolio advice

Would you like to apply, but aren't sure whether you should submit your portfolio? Pack up some of your drawings and come to us for a portfolio consultation! Professors from the selection committee will advise you on the selection of your work and give you tips on areas where you can improve or how you can show your strengths. 
We offer two types of portfolio consultations: artistic and subject-related. In the artistic portfolio consultations, professors from the Department of Art discuss your work with you (important for the artistic part of the portfolio); in the program-related portfolio consultations, you receive feedback on work for your planned course of study (e.g. fashion illustrations for the B.A. in Fashion). 
You can find the dates for our portfolio consultations at the top of this page.
