The Faculty of Design
Founded in 1710 as one of the oldest Art Schools in Germany, the Faculty of Design has early acquired a reputation in type design and printing techniques.
But more interesting is what the Design School has built on that legacy: As part of the Augsburg Technical University of Applied Sciences it has become the biggest of Bavaria’s Design Schools with 600 students and it is now a place where design students not only learn the fundamentals in visual art, design and digital media but also different approaches to problem solving and design thinking.
According to the Art Directors Club of Germany the Augsburg Faculty of Design is the best Design School in Germany. Apart from the national recognition we are proud to be amongst the 30 best Design Schools in the world, ranked by the Art Directors Club New York.
