Overview & Objectives

Every year, the IAD organizes a 5-days career excursion for the 5th/6th semester students. This year it takes place from 08th to 12th of February.

The goal of the excursion is to travel to a city in order to meet with local design agencies and discover a vibrant cultural scene, where we can widen our horizon and get insights into different fields. Together with the classmates and a lecturer of the IAD team, we visit agencies and museums, take part in guided tours or undertake other design-relevant activities. There is also time for some non-design-related things in the evenings.

Due to the current situation, we are not able to make a physical trip this year. Unfortunately, we cannot change this, but as designers we are taking this opportunity to create a digital set up with a very unique and innovative travel experience. To make this happen, the students are involved in the whole organising process.

It is part of the curriculum and students get 2 ECTS points.
