Anyone wishing to study design at the Hochschule Niederrhein (HSNR) in the winter semester 2025/2026 must first take part in an artistic-design aptitude interview. Those interested can register for this until 2 July 2025.
The aptitude interview is a prerequisite for admission to the Bachelor's degree programmes in Communication Design and Product and Object Design. Applicants present their portfolio of independently developed design work.
Further information on the design degree programme and registration for the aptitude interview can be found at: https: //www.hs-niederrhein.de/design/studieninteressierte/bewerbung-ba/
Portfolio counselling to prepare for the aptitude interview
To support prospective students in creating their own portfolio, the Department of Design offers free programme-specific portfolio consultations for both degree programmes. Prospective students can present their sketchbooks and other drawings and works here, even if they have already applied for the aptitude assessment. Teachers advise on the course of study and give tips for improvement.
Registration for the portfolio consultations is required. Further information and the dates can be found at: https: //www.hs-niederrhein.de/mappenberatung.
