Aspire to become an expert for Traffic & Transport Information Design 

 
The MSc course Traffic & Transport Information Design offers seminal opportunities to BA and BSc graduates of disciplines like Information Design, (Visual) Communications Design and Graphic Design. Interested applicants with subject related backgrounds from disciplines other than design might likewise feel attracted. Proven life experience increases the probability of acceptance to the course. 
 
"Traffic & Transport Information Design" covers both "Traffic Information" and "Public Transport Information" which relate to well established industries with well-defined customers and a public interest in the back.
 
Both subject matters are developed in detail in the "advanced" stage of the course (semesters 3 and 4). They build on two "general" modules, offered in year one: "Information Design Basics" and "Multimodal Information" (semesters 1 and 2). Semester 5 is for the master thesis and seminar.
