Life as a student

Your typical week

Collaboration is key in all study programmes. You will be working with other design students on big and small projects, most often with a specific topic in mind. Some briefs are given to you by companies, others are more open and playful.

A lot of students work on their own projects parallel to the teaching. You can use the school’s workshops, which are open 24/7.

Hours
The bachelor's programme is a full-time study. In the first year, you will have classes almost every day from Monday to Friday. Classes take place between 9:15 AM and 2:45 PM. In addition, you are expected to work independently on assigned tasks. In the second and third years, there will gradually be fewer teaching days and more independent project work. On average, students at Kolding School of Design spend around 40 hours per week on their studies.

Materials
Students pay a material fee of approx DKK 3,000, which covers basic, common materials such as paint, paper, chemicals, nails, screws, filaments for printing, paper in photo workshop, sewing thread and software. The amount is charged in the first semester and covers all six semesters of the bachelor's programme. You bear the costs of your own materials.
