The Department of Design is in constant interaction with companies, organizations, universities, the society and the business community. Our research and education are internationally valued and interest the best students in the world. Our work is based on expertise, national cultural capital and dynamic international contacts. Research and education support each other and constantly create new thinking.

Collaboration projects benefit both sides as product ideas, new methods and perspectives, publications, as well as national and international contacts. Revenue from the projects is directly targeted to the development and maintenance of research and education quality.
