Curriculum

The first-cycle professional higher education program Material Design lasts 3 years (6 semesters) and is worth 180 ECTS credits.

In the first year, the curriculum is the same for all students, with the exception of the foreign language requirement, where students can choose between English and Italian.

Upon entering the second year, students select a specialization within which they wish to acquire relevant professional knowledge, and at the same time choose an elective course from a list of available electives.

In the third year, students in both tracks select 3 courses from 5 possible options in addition to the required curriculum.

 

The Material Design study program consists of two tracks:

  • the Stone Design track or
  • the 3D Design track.
