Information Design
Do you enjoy an interdisciplinary mix of design, programming and language, and are curious about the creative experimental field of analog and digital media? Are you interested in current topics from politics, business and science - and do you see the need to communicate these topics simply and clearly for a large group of users? If so, we'd love to get you excited about a course of study in which you'll conceptualize and design multimedia user experiences in the jungle of information.
