Program description:
Our Designer Making BA program offers an opportunity to practice and improve in a wide range of activities.

We believe in studio-focussed education and training. The campus is located on the premises of the Zsolnay Cultural Quarter, where the beautiful historical buildings are filled with the atmosphere of pure culture.
We are the only training centre in Hungary where students can experience such a wide scale of design and making which will enable our students to solve assignments related to either design, craftsmanship, autonomous works of art or contemporary architecture alike.
