Master’s Program

The master's program emphasizes a balance between practice and theory, as well as interdisciplinary research. The minimum graduation credits for the master's program are 30 credits, with 12 credits being compulsory. For master's students without a background in design, additional credits of 6-12 may be required based on their expertise and orientation. The compulsory courses for the master's program include Advanced Product Design (I) (II), Design Literature Seminar, and Design Lecture Series.

Furthermore, elective courses are planned according to core competencies and are divided into four main categories: "Humanistic Cultivation and Technological Knowledge," "Design Thinking and Abilities," "Methods, Exhibition, and Communication/Design Technology and Practical Applications," and "Research and Planning." Additionally, the "International Design Interaction & Design Workshop" course aims to broaden students' international perspectives.

Through diverse courses and one-on-one teaching guidance, students are encouraged to engage in independent academic research and practical creation. This approach fosters critical thinking and innovation, allowing students to explore their roles as designers and redefine the concept of design. Ultimately, it opens up diverse possibilities for the development of the design field.
