THE PROGRAM
The European design labs Master of Design program at the Institute Europeo di Design is a high performance and qualification programme aimed at professionals who wish to change the world through strategic design, sustainability and innovation.
The master concentrates on innovation and strategic design as the central and transversal axis at the same time, without losing sight of the impact that creative thought may have on companies. For the duration of the course, the students share common content and projects and, on the other hand, provides specific training for each one of the cohabiting disciplines: Product Design Lab, Strategic Design Lab and Communication Design Lab.
