“In the first year of study, we deal with the basics of a design draft. Based on specific tasks and projects, central aspects of the design process are made transparent, systematically processed and reflected. It’s about task recognition, research, developing ideas, weighing up methods, project communication, documentation, self-organization and working in a team. At the same time, the students are introduced to the various workshops and can implement their projects there. They get to know different materials and techniques. After the first year of study, students should be familiar with the equipment of class ID1 and the university and use them from then on!”

Students of the first year are mentored by Sofia Podreka & Marcus Bruckmann.
