Visualise the future

At UE you can develop your potential and personality. As a communication designer, you’ll communicate complex issues visually which will influence thoughts and actions. The work you create will not only be aesthetic but will also convey multifaceted messages and emotions. To achieve this, content must always be understood in its cultural, social, ecological and economic context. Designers are the driving force here.
Whilst studying this Bachelor's degree, you will learn from experienced professors and lecturers from the creative industries, using our extensive infrastructure of workshops, libraries, studios, and laboratories. You’ll also have access to an analogue letterpress/lead typesetting, screen-printing, risograph, darkroom, photo studio, print and scan lab, MacPools and a game lab.
