Forkunnskapskrav
Passed foundation level (BA-level) courses at AHO or equivalent, 180 ECTS.
A third semester Master course (only available for students in their final year). Open for all design fields, but students are required to follow up and go in depth within their previous chosen specialisation/field in which they can document advanced design skills through a portfolio and application.
You upload the portfolio here before 10th May: https://nettskjema.no/a/147817
Please specify which track you prefer.
Recommended prerequisite knowledge
This course builds on the design skills and methods learnt across the previous Foundation and Master courses. In “Design Studio” students and teachers integrate and push these skills and mindsets to create rich projects with a high degree of professionally. For students who want to take part in “Design Studio” a strong sense of curiosity, experimental outlooks and independence are therefore required. “Design Studio” allows students to tailor their own personal development as a designer in preparation for their diploma.

TRACKS
1.Making It – the Industrial Design Way
Maximum: 10 students
Teacher in charge: Håkan Edeholt
Field: Industrial design
The track "Making It – the Industrial Design Way" will prepare for both the next coming diploma project and following professional work as an industrial designer. The track is to a certain degree tailored, based on each student's perceived lack of knowledge in his or her wished direction within industrial design. However, some attempts to cluster the group's interests will be done. The overarching framework is to collaborate with local design industries to deliver new ideas to Norwegian production industry. In spite of this, the actual content of the track will primarily be quite tool-based where both digital and physical modelling tools and technologies will be scrutinized further as required by the individual student. As a final outcome we aim for a 'professional' industrial design delivery that makes it possible for the 'client' to either start production, sending it to an external model maker or for other professions to add their respective content.
2.Editorial
Maximum: 6 students
Teacher in charge: Mosse Sjaastad
Field: Interaction design
Prerequisit knowledge: Students will need to have had the course ‘Screens, or provide a portfolio, showcasing sufficient experience in designing for screen based experiences.
In this track, we will take a broad view on 'editorial' and engagement with content and information. Through 3 modules, students will through hands-on and explorative approaches work with learning- and reading experiences, storytelling, and content strategy.
Læringsutbytte
KNOWLEDGE
- The core knowledge outcome of the course is to integrate and mature the processes and methods learnt across the Master of Design.
- Further, students are expected to develop domain-specific knowledge across their projects.
- Knowledge about how advanced design projects can be structured and organised.
SKILLS
- Develop and mature individual skillsets as designers.
- In “Design Studio” students develop and expand core project-handling skills. Including scoping, research, project-description, time-management and communication.
GENERAL COMPETENCE
Across “Design Studio” the goal is to develop the maturity of the students’ design competence and skills. This is done by both focusing on exploration and professionality on an advanced project-level.
Praktisk organisering og arbeidsmåter
The main activities of the course will be project- and specialisation-specific. Across the course there will be a focus on learning project planning, developing and scoping. The course is run in a studio setting, and co-learning across the projects, with some shared lectures and presentations etc, are important. The students will be required to make and present one topic specific “lecture” to the whole “design Studio:”
| Vurderingsform | Gruppering | Karakterskala | Kommentar |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prosjektoppgave | Individuell | Bestått / ikke bestått | Students accepted to the different Design Studio tracks must define their own learning outcome together with the track responsible, after deciding their focus area. This will be the basis for their final evaluation. The assessment method is to be decided by the track responsible in dialog with the student. Students need to present and submit all projects, documentations and presentations in order to be assessed for the course. Students also need to schedule their own mentoring sessions. |
